Painting of the French painter Nicola Lancre “Italian meal”. The size of the painting is 90 x 119 cm, oil on canvas. During the domination of the European art of classicism and partly at the time of romanticism, the works of Lancre were disdainful; Now they are again highly valued by art lovers.
The main ones of these works are “Bathers” and “Young People in the Park”, “Swings”, “Dead Man’s Bluff”, “Childhood”, “Youth”, “Mature Age” and “Old Age”, “Dances in the Park” and, finally, pictures “Spring”, “Summer”, “Autumn”, “Winter”, “Gorlitsy”, “Bird’s Nest”, “Actors of the Italian Theater”. By the way, other masters are well represented in the Louvre, who to some extent continued the tradition begun by Watteau and Lancre. An element of solemn theatricality in the spirit of Nicola Lancre and the interest in comedy scenes inherited from Antoine Watteau are noticeable in the painting by Jean Pater on the theater theme – “The Meeting of Italian Comedy Actors”.
