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. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
