Between 1660 and 1664, the late painter Nicolas Poussin painted his Four Seasons, in which he incorporated biblical episodes. These paintings were a great success, and were soon reproduced by Charles Audran, Louis XIV's official engraver.

The nude couple, in the center, is enveloped in a luxuriant natural setting, allowing the painter to integrate the notion of rebirth embodied by spring.
