The comment was either from someone who doesn't speak English very well or uses a horrible translation program. I decided to check out the link and it directed me to a site in French called "Le Secret de Poussin". Since my French is about as good as my Latin, I ran the site through Google translate. From what I can gather from the site, the author is a relative of Henri Gasc a "pastor of Our Lady of Marceille near Rennes-le-Chateau. Mrs.Gasc is claiming that she inherited these two previously unknown Poussin paintings that are sure to blow the lid off the RLC mysteries. Below are the two paintings for your inspection...
"Previously Unknown Poussin" #1 |
"Previously Unknown Poussin" #2 |
There's a whole litany of explanations, whys, and wherefores on the site that I haven't had a chance to check out at the present time. One of the more interesting items on the site is what appears to be a broadcast of a French TV show dated 26 Dec 2011 that deals with the discovery. Since my French isn't up to snuff, I've only been able to pick out the odd phrase of the "broadcast". If anyone would like to translate the broadcast, drop me an email.
Given the revelations of Ben Hammott this past month, I'm a little gun shy about anything new coming from Rennes-le-Chateau. If these are really previously undiscovered Poussin paintings, at very least they're a great find for the art community. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that these paintings are linked to the mysteries at Rennes-le-Chateau. That is if they are the genuine article at all.... As I find out more on this one, I'll let everyone know.
