Nicolas Poussin, il rinascimento arcadico del XVII secolo
Nicolas Poussin, the Arcadian Renaissance of the seventeenth century is a work whose intento is to bring the reader closer to one of the greatest exponents of 17th century classical painting, Nicolas Poussin. The great sensitivity and profound knowledge of the painter consolidated through the assimilation of the cultural canons of his native homeland, France, and of those of his adopted homeland, the human-renaissance and seventeenth-century human Italy, have been noted. The iconographic reading of some of Poussin's most famous works highlighted the birth of a new pictorial vein that has been defined as the "Arcadian Renaissance".
