Book Description
Excerpt from Notes of a Journey Through France and Italy They have a fine moral perspective, not inferior to Claude's a'erial one. They carry the imagination back two or four thousand years at least, and bury it in the remote twilight of history. There is an Opaqueness and solemnity in his colouring, assimilating with the tone of long-past events: his buildings are stifi with age; his implements of husbandry are such as would belong to the first rude stages of civilization; his harvests are such (as ln the Ruth and Boaz) as would yield to no modern sickle; his grapes (as in the Return from the Promised Land) are a load to modern shoulders; there is a simplicity and undis tinguishing breadth in his figures; and over all, the hand of time has drawn its veil. Poussin has his faults; but, like all truly great men, there is that in him which is to be found nowhere else; and even the excellences of others would be defects in him. One picture of his in particular drew my attention, which I had not seen before. It is an addition to the Louvre, and makes up for many a aw in it. It is the Adam and Eve in Paradise, and it is all that Mr. Martin's picture of that subject is not. It is a scene of sweet ness and seclusion to cure all sadness but despair 'there is the freshness of the first dawn of creation, immortal verdure, the luxuriant budding growth of unpruned Nature's gifts, the stillness and the privacy.
