About the Item

Fete Champetre French School, 18th century circle of Francois Boucher (French 1703-1770) oil painting on canvas, unframed canvas: 35 x 54 inches Provenance: private collection, Paris Very fine, large scale authentic French Rococo period oil painting on canvas. The work dates to the second half of the 18th century and is very close in many respects to the works by Francois Boucher and the circle of painters that he inspired. The artist has captured sumptuous details, painted with a warm palette, embodying the height of the French Rococo movement. Rococo or "Late Baroque", was an exuberantly decorative 18th century European style which was the final expression of the baroque movement. It pushed to the extreme the principles of illusion and theatricality, an effect achieved by dense ornament, asymmetry, fluid curves, and the use of white and pastel colors combined with gilding, drawing the eye in all directions. The Rococo style of architecture and decoration began in France in the first part of the 18th century in the reign of Louis XV as a reaction against the more formal and geometric Style Louis XIV. It was known as the style rocaille, or rocaille style. It quickly spread to other parts of Europe, particularly Bavaria, Austria, Germany and Russia. It also came to influence the other arts, particularly painting, sculpture, literature, music, and theatre. Rococo artists and architects used a more jocular, florid, and graceful approach to the Baroque. The Rococo had playful and witty themes. The interior decoration of Rococo rooms was designed as a total work of art with elegant and ornate furniture, small sculptures, ornamental mirrors, and tapestry complementing architecture, reliefs, and wall paintings. Condition report: The canvas has a very old reline to it, very minor flaking to the sky but very much sound and highly presentable.
