Description
A leisured gathering of aristocratic figures reclines and converges in an ornate garden pavilion, surrounded by exotic plants, carved architectural details, and a golden parasol held aloft against pale skies. Boucher renders the scene in soft pastels of cream, sage green, rose, and pale blue, composing the figures in elegant diagonal arrangements that suggest both intimate conversation and theatrical spectacle, characteristic of Rococo sensibility. Precision-cut from thick, satin-finish paperboard and made to order, in 500 or 1,000 pieces. An afternoon spent building an independent artist's work.
