''Acis and Galatea'' (circa 1630) is an oil on canvas painting by the French Baroque artist Nicolas Poussin. This work is one of Poussin's early interpretations of classical mythology, a theme that would occupy a significant place in his oeuvre. The painting depicts the tragic love story of Acis, a mortal shepherd, and Galatea, a sea nymph, as recounted in Ovid's ''Metamorphoses''. The idyllic and pastoral scene is overshadowed by the looming presence of the cyclops Polyphemus, whose unrequited love for Galatea leads to the brutal murder of Acis.

Poussin's rendition of the tale is notable for its classical restraint and emphasis on harmony, both in composition and color. The figures are arranged in a manner that reflects the influence of ancient sculpture and Renaissance art, while the landscape in the background is rendered with meticulous attention to detail, characteristic of Poussin's style. The painting is a testament to Poussin's mastery of narrative and his ability to convey complex emotions through a carefully constructed visual language.

The work is an important example of Poussin's early period, which was marked by a more lyrical and romantic approach before he fully developed the austere and monumental style that would define his later career. ''Acis and Galatea'' is housed in a prestigious collection, and it continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance, offering insight into the development of 17th-century French painting and the enduring appeal of classical mythology in European art.
