Nicolas Poussin: The painter's painter | National Gallery

Описание: What has made Nicolas Poussin so influential over artists through the decades? And how did his style adapt over his career? Often referred to as the ‘painter’s painter’, this 17th-century artist is well represented for you to explore at the National Gallery in London.

However, we were missing a key aspect of his oeuvre: his famous 'Seven Sacraments'. In celebration of our Bicentenary this year, in 2024, we acquired 'Eucharist' from this series. It is one of the greatest paintings of the Last Supper.

Join National Gallery curator Francesca Whitlum-Cooper and Head of Conservation, Larry Keith, in the conservation studio, to see this newly acquired, later work alongside an earlier Poussin, 'Cephalus and Aurora'.
