Analyzing the decorative mythological imagery of the hunting lodge of King Philip IV of Spain, this study illuminates the dialogical nature of a painted program, designed largely by Peter Paul Rubens, and supplemented by Diego Velázquez.

'This ambitious study deals with two of the most complex artists of the seventeenth century, who, moreover, represent two different artistic traditions. Habsburg myth making, the emblematic tradition, the mythographic tradition, and innumerable ancient texts are adduced by the authors to build a set of associative meanings around the mythological paintings created for the Torre de la Parada. The authors treat intention and reception with subtlety and deftness, and offer up a rich range of possible meanings for this intriguing pictorial ensemble.' Giles Knox, Indiana University, USA

Learned, original and well argued, this study does justice to the complexity of mythological painting in the context of the seventeenth-century Spanish court.' Anna C. Knaap, Emmanuel College, USA

In examining this artistic dialogue within and beyond the Torre cycle, the authors compellingly attend to how these artists exchanges produced not only an ambitious painting cycle but also a court audience ready to embrace these paintings.' Historian of Netherlandish Art Review of Books
