Meanwhile, in the life of Peter Paul Rubens

1627–1630
Diplomatic Missions between Spain and England
Rubens was active as a diplomat, shuttling between the courts of Spain and England in an effort to achieve peace between the Catholic Spanish Netherlands and the Protestant Dutch Republic; he also made several trips to Holland.
1629 – April 1630
Diplomatic Journey to London
After a brief stay in Antwerp, Rubens traveled to London, where he remained until April 1630, continuing the peace negotiations between Spain and England.
1630
Marriage to Helena Fourment
Four years after the death of Isabella Brant, the 53-year-old Rubens married the 16-year-old Helena Fourment; she became the artist's muse and the inspiration for the sensuous figures in many of his paintings of the 1630s, including The Three Graces and The Judgment of Paris.
1630
Knighted by Charles I
King Charles I of England knighted Rubens, adding a heraldic lion to his personal coat of arms; a few months later Philip IV confirmed his knightly status.
