Godly Paintings by Nicolas Poussin 5 stars worthy
Today, I wanted to review some godly paintings by Nicolas Poussin. As such, here we have the first painting. The guy in the throne is the sun Titan Helios. In the foreground, we have fall and winter. The girls near Helios are Spring and Summer. The winged old guy is Saturn. The man kneeling down is Phaeton. He was the idiot son of Helios. Here he is asking his father to lend him his Sun carriage. He wanted to show his friends that he was the son of Helios. Needless to say, this story did not have a happy ending. In any case, this cute painting deserves 5 stars rating.
This painting shows the world of Flora. All around her, we see men and women looking at flowers. Sitting in the throne, we see the blondy Flora. She is speaking with one of her cherished nymphs. Overall, the scenery is rather cute. There are some odd weirdos like a guy falling on his sword. In any case, this cute painting by Nicolas Poussin deserves 5 stars rating.
Here we see a detail of the "The Triumph of Neptune". These figures represent two water nymphs and a river god. The basin stands for how all rivers wind up in the sea. I think that is everything worth mentioning about this side of the painting. 5 stars for Poussin.
This next painting shows three mermaids. They are ridding on top of fishes. They came out looking really pretty. 5 stars for Poussin.
Above, we have another grand Greek Painting. In the background, we see Apollo talking with all of the Muses. Over them, cherubs and other cute kids are glorifying them. In the foreground, poets and philosophers are talking about this event. Each of the Muses has their own symbol. The idealized background scenery came out pretty well. In any case, this lovely painting by Nicolas Poussin deserves 5 stars rating.
Above, we see four people dancing to the music of time. Each maiden represents a different state of our life. The statue on the left shows a young and an old man. On the ground, we see two children. One is playing a flute. The other has Time's hourglass. Over the sky, we see Helious. Even, the Gods are participating in the dance of time. No one can escape his music. This immutable truth by Nicolas Poussin deserves 5 stars rating.
