Description
Étienne BOUCHARDY (1797-1849), attributed to The young draughtsman of the grand tour Graphite, watercolour and gum 38.5 x 28.5 cm The Grand Tour was an educational and initiatory journey reserved for young European aristocrats, mainly British. Very popular in the 18th century, it lasted from several months to three years. Participants travelled through France, Switzerland, Italy (Florence, Rome, Venice, Naples) and sometimes Germany, to perfect their classical culture, study ancient art and the Renaissance, learn languages and discover the good manners of European society. It was the ultimate stage in the education of a "gentleman". [BP]
