Elegant antique Engraving entitled L'Hiver (Winter), after a celebrated composition by Antoine Watteau (French, 1684-1721), one of the most influential painters of French Rococo art. The engraving artist is N. de Larmessin. The scene presents a classical garden landscape animated by gracefully dressed figures sheltering from winter weather. The composition is rich in detail: aristocratic figures gather near monumental architecture, urns, and bridges, while bare trees and wintry skies signal the season. Below the image, the French inscription reads "Engraved after the original painting by Watteau, 5 feet high and 8 feet wide", From the Cabinet of M. de Sullimne. Paris, near Freilisi". This inscription confirms this is an authorized reproductive engraving, made directly after Watteau's original painting. It documents the original painting's dimensions, a common scholarly practice in 18th century French prints...

74030 Rare Antique French Aubusson Tapestry, 04’04 x 10’02. Evoking the splendor of France’s Rococo age, this handwoven wool antique French tapestry is an exquisite vision of romance, artistry, and timeless grace. Woven in the late 19th century, it draws inspiration from the pastoral tableaux of François Boucher, whose idyllic depictions of courtly leisure and bucolic charm defined the spirit of the era. Here, a young woman strolls behind a gallant flutist along a sun-dappled woodland path—an intimate moment caught in silk and wool, imbued with the tender lyricism of a love song whispered through the French countryside. Every thread speaks of heritage, mastery, and the kind of effortless elegance that only centuries of refinement could produce. The tranquil scene is a study in pastoral poetry: soft foliage, muted sunlight filtering through trees, and the rustling quiet of a timeless afternoon. The dreamlike color palette—dusty rose, celadon, gold, and faded umber—conveys the patina of history while radiating a romantic luminosity that feels alive even today. This is not simply an artifact of French décor; it is a living artwork, woven with emotion, movement, and musicality. The one-of-a-kind composition unfolds like a painting by Watteau or Fragonard—an ode to the pleasures of nature, beauty, and human connection. The craftsmanship reveals the hand of a master weaver trained in the grand Aubusson and Gobelins tradition, where textile art transcended function to become a mark of nobility. Each precious weave captures tonal nuance and painterly shading with breathtaking precision—a feat achieved only by ateliers devoted to the highest standards of European artistry. This tapestry once would have graced the walls of aristocratic salons and manors, its presence signaling sophistication, education, and cultured taste. Today, its survival stands as a testament to both its quality and its enduring charm. To own such an exquisite work of art is to inherit a fragment of France’s artistic legacy—a portal to a world of refinement and reverie. This antique pastoral tapestry...

18th century German, a hand-colored engraving of a dressage horse and rider from Description du Manège Moderne by Friedrich Wilhelm, Baron Rais d' Eisenberg (German, ca. 1700-ca. 1770). Engraved by Bernard Picart (French, 1673-1733). Titled "Le Brillant", this dressage engraving is plate XXXIII. There is a gallery label verso. The print is matted and framed under UF-3 plexiglass, which offers the maximum amount of UV protection (approx. 97%). This print was originally part of an illustrated book Baron d'Eisenberg made describing the art of the cavaliers and depicting the different breeds of horses- The full title of the book is L'Art de Monter a Cheval: ou Description du Manége Moderne, Dans sa Perfection, published in Leipzig: Arkstée et Merkus, 1747). A set of 7 framed engravings from the same book sold at Sotheby's for $9,500 (plus tax and buyers premium). Reference: The author, a German horseman and artist, spent some of his youth at the manège of Saxe-Weimar before entering into the service of the Emperor. He then spent six years in Naples as the Master of Horse of the Viceroy before returning to Vienna where he studied under M. de Regenthal, the imperial Master of Horse. He participated in the coronation of the Emperor Charles V at Frankfurt in 1711, then spent some time in England, but was back in Germany before 1753. He probably died in Tuscany where he was Director and Master of the Horse at the Academy in Pisa. Brunet II, 957; Mennessier de la Lance I, p. 438. The Baron wrote several important and lavishly illustrated books on horses: his Description du manège moderne dans sa perfection, London 1727, and Dictionnaire des termes du manège moderne, 1747, being the best well-known. He dedicated Description du Manège Moderne to King George II and to his son, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. Subscribers to the book included royalty and nobility from all over Europe. The engraver was Bernard Picart, born in Paris in 1673. He gained honors at the Academy of Paris at the age of sixteen. He was a master designer and engraver and worked in Paris and Amsterdam until his death in 1733.

This is a charming painting of a cherub with an arm extending forward, perhaps hold out a bouquet of flowers. The painting dates to the mid-18th century and is probably cut from a larger painting.
