Stunning Underwater Photographs by Christy Lee Rogers are Reminiscent of Classical French Baroque Paintings

The underwater ‘muses’ photo series by Christy Lee Rogers is reminiscent of  French Baroque painter Nicolas Poussin.

The Hawaiian visual artist produces her colourful, luminous works by submerging her models interlaced bodies, draped in vibrant fabrics, into water and capturing the refraction of light which gives the photographs a painterly effect.
