Pieter de Balliu
Pieter de Balliu is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Dutch printmakers in the 1600s loved dramatic scenes with horses and crowds. Pieter de Balliu carved The Rape of Hippodamia, a mid-17th-century print showing a myth about runaway horses dragging a bride off her chariot. Look closely, he packed every inch with muscle, cloth, and panic.
Want to see how the same myth played out on canvas? Tap The Rape of the Sabine Women by Nicolas Poussin.
