鲁本斯与妻子海伦娜·福尔曼（1614–1673年）及他们的一个孩子

Peter Paul Rubens Flemish

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 618

这幅宏伟的自画像的场景设在“爱的花园”里，与鲁本斯位于安特卫普宅第背后的花园类似，画中有艺术家本人、他的第二任妻子海伦娜·福尔曼和他们的其中一个小孩，赞美了作为妻子和母亲的海伦娜。这对夫妻在1630年结婚，共育有五个孩子；图上这个孩子一定是出生于1633年 7 月12 日的弗兰斯。他的姐姐克拉拉·乔安娜没有出现在这幅画中，可能是因为这幅画是为了赞美海伦娜给这位富有的画家添了一位男性子嗣（他将继承父亲的所有财产）。鹦鹉是圣母玛丽亚的标志之一，因此象征着完美的母性地位。
