Title: Le Parnasse, Poussin

Poussin painted this canvas during his first years in Rome, between 1631 and 1633, using in it the same composition and the same theme as those of a fresco work painted by Rafael in the Vatican.  This work, now in the Prado Museum in Madrid, show Mount Parnassus, close to the source of the spring of Castalia, with a group of Greek gods and the principal poets, muses, etc.  Poussin describes a scene, luminous image, with smooth subtle colours and the figures perfectly arranged in space.  It is the most perfect example of the classicism practised during the French baroque.
