Perspective Romantic environment by Jean Antoine Watteau

Perspective Romantic environment It seems that Watto’s gallant scenes would be lost a lot, if they were not written against the background of such exquisitely melancholic landscapes. Actually, Watteau’s landscape is almost never “just a background”. He becomes an independent participant in the action. Sometimes – even more important than other characters.

For example, in the works “Rest in the Park” and “Perspective” people figures are lost against the background of mysterious misty landscapes. Some art historians believe that Watteau painted some of his paintings precisely as landscapes and included human figures in them just to make the work easier to sell.

As for the “Perspective”, written by the master in the estate of Crozet, it is surprisingly contrasted with the “strength” of the nature of human variability. It is felt that people only briefly went into this – a charming corner of the park and will soon leave. And nothing will remind them of their stay here.
