Le Tricheur à l’as de carreau by La Tour (1635)
Les portraits d’Hélène Fourment by Rubens (1636)
Port de mer au soleil couchant by Le Lorrain (1639)
Le Tricheur à l’as de carreau is currently housed in the Louvre Museum is considered as a masterpiece amongst French paintings. Les portraits d’Hélène Fourment are probably the most personal paintings of the artist wherein he explores the different facets of Hélène’s personality. Port de mer au soleil couchant depicts a scene which, although although coming
from the painter’s imagination, is not unreal. It reconstitutes reality by bringing together architectures, boats, and characters seen by the artist at different places and at different times.
