작품 상세

This lot features an oil on canvas painting painted in the manner of the School of Francois Boucher. Boucher took inspiration from artists such as Peter Paul Rubens and Antoine Watteau. Boucher's early works celebrate the idyllic and tranquil portrayal of nature and landscape with great elan. However, his art typically forgoes traditional rural innocence to portray scenes with a definitive style of eroticism as his mythological scenes are passionate and intimately amorous rather than traditionally epic. Not signed. Measures approx. (oval) 23.5" x 19.75", 32.5" x 28.5" with frame. The auction high for Boucher is $2,405,000; the estimate high and low for School of Francois Boucher is $40,000 - $60,000. This piece comes with a letter from William H. Wright M.F.A stating his belief in the painting's authenticity. This piece comes from the Dickenson estate of Knoxville, Tennessee. See Photos for Details. Shipping Available.
