EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the innocence and charm of a little girl in 18th century France. Standing gracefully, she holds a bunch of luscious grapes in her tiny hands, while a basket filled with more of these delectable fruits rests by her side. The scene is reminiscent of a countryside setting, evoking images of idyllic rural life. The image belongs to the "Deuxieme Livre de Figures d'apres les porcelaines de la Manufacture Royale de France" which translates to the "Second Book of Figures after Porcelains from the Manufacture Royale de France". Created after 1757 by Pierre Etienne Falconet and Francois Boucher, this engraving beautifully showcases their talent for capturing delicate details. The little girl's headscarf adds an element of authenticity to her attire, reflecting the fashion trends of that era. Her serene expression suggests contentment as she sits amidst nature's bounty. This portrait exudes Rococo aesthetics with its soft lines and intricate patterns. Preserved in museums like The Met, this piece is part of our heritage art collection. It serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and simplicity that defined childhood during that time. Pierre Francois Tardieu skillfully immortalized this moment through his expert craftsmanship in etching. His work transports us back centuries ago when children found joy in simple pleasures like plucking grapes from vineyards on warm summer days.
