I think you are referring to paintings by Peter Paul Rubens. His style is why larger women today are sometimes called "Rubenesque"

Rubenesque women were shown in the original "the Firm" videos when they started. (that's a home fitness enterprise) does anyone remember that? I guess to get us to think of how we don't want to look.
It must be Ruben, he is the only one that comes to mind when thinking of paintings of fat women.

Rubenesque - after the Dutch painter Rubens who painted such people.

Maybe you are referring to "Rubenesque" paintings...a term coined from the works of the Dutch painter Rubens who often painted voluptuous and fleshy human figures.

Rubens. Love him. Many paintings of the Renaissance era have that kind of flair.
