Title
English: Winter (original)
Français : L'Hiver (original)
Description
English: After a drawing by Le Brun, inspired by Iconologia by Cesare Ripa
Français : D'après un dessin de Le Brun, tiré de l'Iconologie de Cesare Ripa. Mais Girardon a transformé l'allégorie conventionnelle en une évocation dramatique et même tragique, d'un homme en proie aux forces de la mort. Son attitude recroquevillée sur le brasero traduit l'instinct de survie de ce vieillard qui se sait condamné.
Date between 1675 and 1679

Elle se trouve désormais à l'abri dans la Galerie Basse du château depuis 2009
