Girl playing with a dog by Jean Honoré Fragonard

A painting by French painter Jean Honore Fragonard “A Girl Playing with a Dog”. The size of the picture is 70 x 87 cm, canvas, oil. Upon his return from Italy, Fragonard is fond of writing gallant scenes, as well as the execution of breast portraits, somewhat bizarre. In the genre of portrait, the artist will be enthusiastically working throughout his life.

The picturesque manner of Fragonard, based on a temperamental smear and coming from Tiepolo and Rubens of light golden tonality, is called “a la Fragonard”. Cloths of the pastoral gallant genre: “Happy possibilities of a swing”, “Abduction by a Cupid shirt”, “Bathers”, “A girl playing with a dog” or “Desired moments” are various. These are not devoid of erotic love scenes and playful juicy stories.
