  • Book Description

    Nicolas Poussin's Landscape Allegories offers new interpretations for several of the artist's most beautiful and enigmatic paintings of his late career. Sheila McTighe examines the landscapes within the social and intellectual context of seventeenth-century libertinage, a clandestine atheist movement, and argues that, despite their outward limpidity, Poussin's landscape allegories, are deliberately obfuscatory, their meaning ensconced in a set of signs and symbols recognizeable only to an intellectual milieu that was marginal in seventeenth-century cultural life.
