Charles Le Brun, The Sacrifice of Polyxena

The canvas is signed and dated 1647, a year after Charles Le Brun, the future <i>premier peintre du roi</i> under Louis XIV, returned to Paris from a period of study in Rome. In Paris, where he had been the pupil of François Perrier and spent time in the workshop of Simon Vouet, his work had caught the attention of Nicolas Poussin, who had returned to the French capital to work for the king in 1640
