Bacchanales: Nymph Supported by Two Satyrs, 1763. Creator: Jean-Honore Fragonard (French
Bacchanales: Nymph Supported by Two Satyrs, 1763. The set of Bacchanales was made two years after Fragonard returned from a trip to Italy where he studied Roman antiquities. However, these light-hearted vignettes owe more to the effervescent aspects of the 18th-century Rococo period than to a serious understanding of antiquity and Roman art. Fragonards black chalk drawing for Nymph Supported by Two Satyrs --after a marble bas-relief then in the Villa Mattei in Rome--and two other studies for these etchings still exist. Although this is one of Fragonards earliest prints, it shows that he had already mastered the process: the etched lines effectively suggest the weight and movement of the figures and also provide a uniform system of light and shading for the decorative backdrop of foliage

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jean-Honore Fragonard's masterpiece, "Bacchanales: Nymph Supported by Two Satyrs" created in 1763. Inspired by his visit to Italy and the study of Roman antiquities, Fragonard skillfully combines elements of the Rococo period with a lighthearted interpretation of ancient art. The etching depicts a nymph gracefully supported by two satyrs amidst a backdrop of lush foliage. Through delicate lines and expert shading, Fragonard captures the weight and movement of the figures, creating a sense of dynamic energy within the composition. Although one of Fragonard's earliest prints, it is evident that he had already mastered the intricate process. Each line serves its purpose in conveying both form and atmosphere, resulting in an exquisite work that exudes charm and sophistication. Fragonard's attention to detail extends beyond just the central figures; even the decorative backdrop reflects his meticulous approach. The foliage provides a uniform system of light and shade, enhancing both visual harmony and depth within the artwork. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this print allows us to appreciate Fragonard's artistic prowess from centuries ago. It stands as a testament to his ability to blend historical influences with contemporary aesthetics seamlessly. Heritage Art/Heritage Images has beautifully captured this timeless piece through their photography expertise, allowing art enthusiasts around the world to admire Fragonard's genius for generations to come.
