Nicolas Poussin painted "Paysage avec Orion aveugle cherchant le soleil" (1658) ("Landscape with blind Orion seeking the sun"), after learning of the description by the 2nd-century Greek author Lucian, of a picture of Orion recovering his sight; Poussin included a storm-cloud, which both suggests the transient nature of Orion's blindness, soon to be removed like a cloud exposing the sun, and includes Natalis Comes' esoteric interpretation of Orion "as" a storm-cloud. Poussin need not have consulted Lucian directly; the passage is in the notes of the illustrated French translation of Philostratus' "Imagines" which Poussin is known to have consulted. The Austrian Daniel Seiter (active in Turin, Italy), painted "Diane auprès du cadavre d'Orion" (c. 1685) ("Diana next to Orion's corpse"), pictured above.
