Description
Attributed Francois Boucher (French 1703-1770) "The Rape of Europa" Oil Painting on Canvas. A master draftsman, Boucher followed the typical evolution of an aspiring artist of the 18th century, starting out as an apprentice to Francois Lemoyne before striking out on his own. Shortly thereafter, through the early years of the 1720s, he moved on to learning the art of etching, during which time he produced etchings of over 100 of Antoine Watteau's drawings. It would not be long after winning the Academy's annual Prix de Rome that Boucher would find his own niche in the competitive world of the French artworld. Measures approx. - 29 1/2" high x 24 1/2" wide, total with frame - 43 1/4" high x 38 1/4" wide. No visible signature.
