As the leader of pictorial classicism during the baroque era, Poussin believed in reason as the guiding principle of artistic creation and drew his inspiration from the art and philosophy of antiquity. In this important publication, Merot begins by shedding new light on Poussin's early years in France and continues with a detailed historical and critical account of his artistic triumphs.
