EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Nicolas Poussin's "Landscape with buildings" painted between 1648-51. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 120x187 cm and is currently housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. In this scene, we are transported to a tranquil valley adorned with majestic mountains and lush trees. The foreground of the painting features three seated figures, possibly representing the renowned Ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes of Sinope. Known as Diogenes the Cynic, he was a rebel against the falseness and artificiality of civilization. Dressed simply in a rough cloak, Diogenes exemplified honesty and lived an ascetic lifestyle. Poussin's allusion to this story adds depth to the artwork, inviting viewers to contemplate themes of philosophy and rebellion against societal norms. The landscape itself exudes tranquility and pastoral beauty, creating an idyllic setting for contemplation. Acquired by King Philip V of Spain at Palacio de la Granja de San Ildefonso in Segovia in 1727, this painting captures both natural grandeur and human introspection. With its meticulous details and skillful composition, Poussin's work continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide.
