The "Slaughter of the Innocents" is reported in the "Gospel according to Matthew." King Herod killed all the boys under two years born around Bethlehem as the Magi had announced his birth in this city of a child destined to become king of the Jews. Jesus was saved from slaughter by fleeing into Egypt from Famille.Nicolas Poussin depicts the dramatic episode of the New Testament. The left tramples soldier horrified mother can not protect her child. In the center, another trying to escape. At right, a third tries to hold the executioner. The fourth, kneeling, crying child mort.Supplication, horror, terror, despair, each woman's face expresses a different feeling. The dark architecture firm behind the picture plane leaves no escape characters arranged in frieze as an ancient bas-relief. The faces of the soldiers, anonymous executioners and indifferent, drowned in shadow. Their bodies draw arabesques, like a macabre dance around victimes.Même when Poussin painted tragedy, scholarly and rigorous compositions seek harmony, to the delight of connoisseurs.
