Rape of the SabinesNicholas Poussin, 1636-37 • In Poussin's Rape of the Sabine Women we see a narrative illustration of a story from Classical antiquity, a piece of propaganda for Louis the XIV, a collection of colors organized in an asymmetrical way, a Classical palette (primarily red, yellow, blue), and a violent scene. Each of these represent differing ways to evaluate the work. • Form: the work has an asymmetrical balance, a Classical palette, and mostly diagonal lines. • Context: it is a painting done by Nicholas Poussin, in a Classical (Renaissance) way which helped to reinforce Louis XIV's claim to the Roman Emperorship. • Content: a violent scene which is an illustration of a story from Classical antiquity.
