Follower of Nicolas Lancret,
French 1690-1743-
Study of an elegant lady picking flowers;
black and red chalk on laid paper, 21.8 x 14.8 cm.
Provenance:
Private Collection, UK.
Note:
The present work is clearly heavily influenced by the approach of Lancret, a central proponent of the Rococo movement who was celebrated for his fête galante scenes, depicting elegantly-dressed figures in idealised garden landscapes. A drawing by Lancret in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum, New York [36.101.4] similarly illustrates a figure in an elaborate gown, in this case seated on the grass.
