Ruben's renderings of the Judgement of Paris mark every stage in his career, so that this survey, including familiar and unfamiliar works, allows an insight into his entire artistic development. The Judgement of Paris - the tale of the shepherd-prince who gave Venus the prize in a beaty competition - was variously treated by classical writers and became a favourite theme for artists. No painter seems to have responded to the ancient story with more intelligence and entousiasm than Peter Paul Rubens, who devoted at least eight pictures to it.
