Book synopsis

Possessed literary, philosophical, visual cultivation and freedom of expression, Nicolas Poussin stood out for the subjects he chose to paint, as well as for the natural austerity, simplicity and clarity in the harmonious execution of his paintings. He was able to create his own optical language, which aimed in providing pleasure to the mind and not to the senses. At this point, the majority of the art historians study his work in relation to the movement of Neostoicism that reflects his ideology and his clients' aesthetics too during a troubled period such it was the 17th Century in Europe and specifically in France and in Italy.
