Jean-Honore Fragonard Fine Art Painting Titled A Young Girl Reading, 1776 Greeting Card Boxed Set
Brand: Classic Fine Art Cards

Jean-Honore Fragonard was a French painter and printmaker whose late Rococo manner was distinguished by remarkable facility, exuberance, and hedonism. One of the most prolific artists active in the last decades of the Ancien Regime, Fragonard produced more than 550 paintings (not counting drawings and etchings), of which only five are dated. Among his most popular works are genre paintings conveying an atmosphere of intimacy and veiled eroticism. For half a century or more he was so completely ignored that Lubke in his History of Art (1873) omits the very mention of his name. Subsequent reevaluation has confirmed his position among the all-time masters of French painting. The influence of Fragonard's handling of local color and expressive, confident brushstroke on the Impressionists (particularly his grand niece, Berthe Morisot, and Renoir) cannot be overestimated. Fragonards paintings Alongside those of Francois Boucher, seem to sum up an era.
