Sammanfattning:This is the second volume in the series ‘Rubens Unveiled’, in which the Rubens Research Project of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp shares the fruits of its research with a wider public.

The book describes the history of these religious institutions and reveals how they looked, inside and out
