A follower of Poussin, Bourdon was one of the principal exponents of classicism in French seventeenth-century painting. This canvas was probably painted for the private chapel of one of the artist’s patrons. The cool colors, soft surfaces, and hazy atmosphere are all characteristic of Bourdon’s mature style.
