摘要
This article addresses Poussin's Flora pictures, focusing not, as many others have, on the literary sources for the Realm of Flora (1631, Dresden) but on the so-called Triumph of Flora (ca. 1628, Louvre) and the figure of a dancing girl, dressed in green, who appears in each of these works. Identifying this figure as Flora, goddess of flowers and spring, the author offers a new reading of the Louvre painting as a "Triumph of Venus", a meditation on the dangers and the transformative power of love.
