EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sly Shepherd" takes us back to the 18th century, showcasing an exquisite etching on a sheet measuring 10 9/16 x 8 1/8 inches. The artwork, attributed to an anonymous French artist after Gabriel Huquier from Orleans (1695-1772) and Paris (1703-1770), is a reversed copy of the original piece. The image depicts a shepherdess seated gracefully while a shepherd stands beside her, both immersed in their pastoral surroundings. The shepherd tenderly holds onto a branch, perhaps plucked for his beloved companion. This scene is captured in plate number five of the second book titled "De Sujets Pastorales" which translates to "Of Pastoral Subjects". The print's intricate details and delicate lines transport us into this idyllic countryside setting where shepherds and shepherdesses find solace amidst nature's beauty. It serves as a reminder of the timeless allure that pastoral themes have held throughout art history. Preserved by Artokoloro, this print allows us to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship behind this remarkable etching from centuries ago. Its presence invites contemplation and admiration for the anonymous artist who brought these characters to life with such finesse.
