Item description

Oil on canvas. French school of the mid-18th century. The work draws on other models of the French Rococo, such as that created by Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732 -1806) a painter known for his light, sensual and refined painting, or that of Jean Antoine Watteau (1684–1721) famous for having invented the genre of "gallant parties", i.e. idyllic and theatrical scenes set in lush parks, where the aristocracy entertains courtships, music and conversations. This is the scene proposed here: inside a park a lady, accompanied by the maid who holds her parasol, listens to the music played on the flute by a young man, while a couple of mischievous servants peek from behind the tree. Lively, colourful, full of light vitality, the painting is pleasant and decorative. Still on the first canvas, it shows traces of slight previous restorations. In an early 1900s frame.
