Small Fragonard Lithograph “C’Est Papa”
Description
French Small Lithograph “C’Est Papa!”
This engraving is likely a hand-colored print after a work by Jean-Honoré Fragonard, a leading painter of the Rococo style in 18th-century France. Fragonard was known for his lively and sensual depictions of aristocratic life, often featuring playful scenes and intimate moments. His work captured the spirit of the era with its emphasis on pleasure, romance, and lightheartedness.
Nicolas de Launay was a skilled engraver who collaborated with many prominent artists of his time, translating their paintings and drawings into prints. Engravings like this were popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, allowing a wider audience to appreciate the works of famous artists. The hand-coloring adds a unique touch, making each print slightly different and enhancing its decorative appeal.
