Lucas Vorsterman (1595-1675), after Rubens - De aanbidding van de wijzen
Engraving after a work by Pieter Paul Rubens.
In 1618 Lucas Vorsterman (1595-1675) was able to start work as an engraver in Rubens' studio in Antwerp. Vorsterman, like several of the other engravers with whom Rubens worked, was born in the Netherlands, in Zaltbommel. In 1620 he was registered as a citizen in Antwerp.
