French painter. Born in Paris. He learned painting from his father Laurent. He was famous as a portrait painter from an early age, and visited London, Constantinople, and Venice in 1613. He moved to Rome the following year, where he stayed until 1627. He started out by painting Caravaggio-esque works (1624, a series for the church of San Lorenzo in Lucina in Rome), characterized by dramatic depictions with emphasis on contrasts between light and dark, but gradually he was influenced by Lanfranco and Gentileschi, who expressed subtle differences in light and dark with stable compositions. When he returned to France, he was immediately appointed chief court painter to Louis XIII, and he was known for allegorical, historical, and religious paintings. Because Poussin was located in Rome, he enjoyed great fame in France, and his studio produced many representative painters of the next generation, including Lebrun. His representative works include the decorative ceiling painting at the Hôtel Ségu in Paris and "The Death of Dido" (Louvre Museum).

フランスの画家。パリ生まれ。父ローランから絵画の手ほどきを受ける。肖像画家として幼いころから有名で、ロンドン、コンスタンティノープル、そして1613年にベネチアを訪れる。翌年ローマに移り、27年まで滞在。初め明暗の対比が強調され劇的描写を特徴とするカラバッジョ的作品(1624、ローマのサン・ロレンツォ・イン・ルチーナ教会の連作)を描くが、徐々に安定した構図で明暗の微妙な違いを表現するランフランコ、ジェンティレスキの影響を受ける。フランスに戻ると早速ルイ13世の首席宮廷画家に就任、寓意(ぐうい)画、歴史画、宗教画などをよくした。プサンがローマにあったため、フランスでの名声をほしいままにし、その工房からルブランをはじめとする次の世代の代表的な画家が輩出した。代表作にパリのオテル・セギュの装飾天井画、『ディドの死』(ルーブル美術館)など。 [上村清雄] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
