About the piece
Painted in 1748, 'The Fountain of Love' is a quintessential example of François Boucher's Rococo style. The scene depicts idealized youths and children in a romanticized countryside, gathered near a classical fountain and a rustic mill. Boucher’s mastery is evident in the luminous blue sky, the delicate handling of light on the figures' silken garments, and the harmonious integration of figures and landscape.
