Article didn’t bother to show the piece, but from the description it isn’t nearly as interesting as many other Rubens paintings.
The fact that another great artist, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, owned this painting once is a bit of art history nerd knowledge that is fun to learn. Bouguereau’s depiction of the human body and skin tones is, in my opinion, the most talented.
