Abraham van Diepenbeeck (1596-1675) served as a favored assistant in the Antwerp studio of Peter Paul Rubens from the mid-1620s to the late 1630s, then establishing himself as a Free Master in the local guild of Saint Luke. Although van Diepenbeeck did independently undertake a limited number of complex baroque narrative paintings on the model of Rubens, more of his time and energy as an independent artist went into designs for tapestries, ornaments, monuments, prints, illustrations, and paintings executed by others.
