The Rubenianum is an internationally renowned research centre for the study and documentation of 16th- and 17th-century Flemish art, especially art by Peter Paul Rubens, Anthony Van Dyck and Jacob Jordaens the elder. Located next to the historic garden of Rubens House in the centre of Antwerp, it was created in 1947 to house the documentation that was generated during the renovation of the site. In 1963 its collection was considerably enriched by the archives of the art historian Ludwig Burchard. The Rubenianum also houses the ‘Centrum voor de Vlaamse Kunst van de 16e en de 17e eeuw’ which publishes the Corpus Rubenianum. A major project since 2004 has been the digital resource ‘Rubensonline’, which includes all known works by Rubens in public collections in Belgium.
