About this title
When they are seen, for the first time, in the context of the religious thought of the Counter-Reformation, they begin to make sense. Furthermore, they are intricate and thoughtful series of paintings, whose merits have been largely concealed, rather than revealed, by their adoption for the purposes of the academies of earlier centuries. There is almost as much to unlearn as to learn about Poussin's paintings.
