JEAN-HONORÉ FRAGONARD. An Angel Bringing Food to a Hermit

JEAN-HONORÉ FRAGONARD. An Angel Bringing Food to a Hermit. Artist: After François Boucher (French, Paris 1703-1770 Paris); Jean Honoré Fragonard (French, Grasse 1732-1806 Paris). Dimensions: Sheet: 10 1/4 × 9 1/2 in. (26 × 24.1 cm) Plate: 9 1/8 × 6 1/4 in. (23.2 × 15.8 cm) Image: 8 1/2 × 5 7/8 in. (21.6 × 14.9 cm). Date: ca. 1750-56. In this, his first print, Fragonard demonstrates a ready facility with the etching needle, producing a composition based on a chalk drawing by his master, François Boucher. Using a variety of short and staccato lines, Fragonard evokes the rough textures of the desert, where a saint seated on the rocky ground accepts a gift from an angel. The drawing by Boucher that was his model survives today in the National Gallery of Canada (inv.6888).
