Nineteen of Nicolas Poussin's paintings take Moses as their subject. The Finding of Moses from 1651 is distinguished not only by the animated detail of the foreground scene, but also by the accuracy of the archaeological background.
A late still life, Picasso's Nature Morte aux Poron reworks the classic genre as an exercise in Cubist angularity.
