Portrait of Eustache Le SueurArt pertaining to coins, currency and other subjects of history and life. This month (August, 2007) we're featuring the art of the Le Sueur Brothers; early 17th century French artists who painted everyday scenes of life in France. Eustache Le Sueur¹ (1617-1655) is arguably the most famous of the brothers. He was a disciple of Vouet and a founding member of the Académie royale (1648). In his short life he painted many decorative works for apartments in the Louvre and for churches and convents. His work was greatly influenced by that of Poussin, whom he rivaled in popularity for a time. The Louvre contains his St. Paul Preaching at Ephesus and episodes from the Life of St. Bruno.
