Eustache Le Sueur, French Baroque painter, was born on this day 19 November 1617. I love the vibrant colours he used in his work - look at those blues, which pop out from the oranges/reds/browns. Simply beautiful! 1) The Rape of Tamar, c. 1640. 2) A Gathering of Friends 1640-42 Oil on canvas, 127 x 195 cm Musée du Louvre, Paris. 3) The Muses: Melpomene, Erato and Polyhymnia 1652-55 Oil on canvas, 130 x 130 cm Musée du Louvre, Paris.
