About the piece
Painted around 1732, this intimate oil study by François Boucher showcases the master's ability to capture youthful radiance. The subject wears a lace-trimmed cap adorned with pink flowers and a rich blue shawl, rendered with the fluid, luminous brushwork and soft color palette characteristic of the French Rococo style.
