About the piece
Created in 1633 by the French master Nicolas Poussin, this work captures Saint Rita of Cascia in a moment of divine translation. Clad in striking blue and saffron robes, she is carried across the sky by a great formation of clouds. Below her lies a serene, classical landscape characterized by a sun-drenched town, rolling hills, and hazy blue mountains, reflecting Poussin's mastery of the 'Grand Manner' style.
