About the piece
Created in 1756 by François Boucher, this masterpiece epitomizes the French Rococo style with its light-hearted mythological subject and soft, painterly touch. The scene depicts Venus, the goddess of love, lounging at a fountain as playful putti and marine figures emerge from the swirling waters and verdant grotto.
