continuing the series of paintings arranged in themes. This week: The Language of Colour Poussin (1594-1665)
Adoration of the Golden Calf at the National Gallery, London
Unlike his contemporary, Rubens, Nicolas Poussin worked from tiny wax models rather than live figures. Yet, through his brilliant use of colour, his paintings live. Written and presented by Edwin Mullins
