Rest on the Hunt
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Francois Boucher captures a delightful scene of leisure and amusement in the French countryside. Set in a picturesque park, this rococo masterpiece showcases a society engaged in post-hunt festivities. The painting depicts an idyllic summer day, with lush trees providing shade for the merry group. In the foreground, a lady dressed elegantly reclines on the grass, her hunting bag casually discarded nearby. She is accompanied by a gallant cavalier who leans against a swing, adding to the fun atmosphere. A horse grazes peacefully while hounds rest at their master's feet. The composition exudes joy and merriment as people engage in various activities around them. A seesaw adds an element of playfulness to the scene while others enjoy a picnic under towering trees. Boucher's skillful use of oil on canvas brings out vibrant colors and intricate details that make this artwork truly captivating. This particular print from "Rest on the Hunt" is part of a private collection, showcasing its value as an exquisite piece of fine art. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are transported back to 18th-century France where nature intertwines with human enjoyment. It serves as both an aesthetic delight and historical testament to how leisure was cherished during that era.
