Description
19th-Century French School – The Milkmaid Pastel on paper. Dimensions: 64 × 51 cm. A genre drawing depicting a young milkmaid, a recurring theme in 17th- and 18th-century European painting, linked to scenes of everyday life and often imbued with subtle symbolic connotations. The work is in the Rococo style, with a delicate rendering of the face and particular attention paid to expression and the softness of the modelling. The pronounced neckline introduces a touch of restrained sensuality, characteristic of this type of depiction. The composition is reminiscent of models popularised by artists such as Jean-Baptiste Greuze, whose iconography greatly influenced this genre. Lot held in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
