| French artist Philippe de Champaigne developed close ties with Jansenism, a Roman Catholic reform movement of the 17th century that was centered at the Benedictine abbey of Port-Royal near Paris. He painted many Jansenist leaders, including the mother superior of Port-Royal, Mother Angélique Arnaud. His portrait, Mère Angélique (1654), is now in the Louvre Museum in Paris. |
