Reader

"The Reader" ("La Liseuse" in French) by Jean-Honoré Fragonard is an oil painting that was painted in the 18th century during the Rococo period, which was characterized by elegant and sentimental scenes. This painting depicts a single woman sitting comfortably on a bed reading a book. "The Reader" by Jean-Honoré Fragonard depicts a young woman sitting on a bed. Her figure is elegantly dressed in soft pastel tones, which is typical of Rococo. The woman wears a light dress with delicate frills and ribbons, which gives her figure lightness and tenderness.

A woman is immersed in reading a book she is holding in her hands. Her attention is fully focused on the text, and it shows in her focused expression. He holds the book in his left hand while holding the page he is currently reading with his right hand.

The painting is illuminated by soft and diffused light, which creates an impression of intimacy and tranquility. This feeling is emphasized by how the woman is naturally placed in her environment, surrounded by cushions and fabrics, creating an impression of comfort.

The overall atmosphere of the painting "The Reader" is calm, intimate and sentimental. Fragonard captured a moment of relaxation and intellectual pleasure that was typical of the social elites of the time. This painting is also a representative example of Rococo, which is characterized by a delicate style and interest in beauty and elegance.

Prevailing color of this fine art print is vivid and its shape is portrait. This image is printed on demand - you can choose material, size and finishing.

French Baroque painter and printmaker, Jean-Honore Fragonard (1732-1806) was born in Grasse. Initially, he worked at the Paris notary. His wasn’t too good at it, but he showed new a talent. He was introduced to Francois Boucher, who saw in the young man a potential future artist. However, he did not want to waste time with one student and therefore sent him to the studio of painter Jean-Baptiste-Simeon Chardin. There, Fragonard spent six months learning hard and preparing so that he could become a student of the aforementioned Boucher. When he completed his painting education, he travelled to Italy, where he painted landscapes. In Europe, he admired the old Dutch masters and tried to imitate their techniques. In 1765, when Louis XV became his patron, he left behind religious themes and fully devoted himself to scenes of love and eroticism - Stolen Kiss . Gradually, however, he ceased to be recognized by other artists, and later the general public. He died in 1806 as an almost unknown and forgotten artist.

Blurry Althought the service was great, the quality of the picture is a bit disappointing: it looks blurry. Maybe it is because of the size I ordered it in, but I think that it could have been signalized or warned about before the printing.

Highly recommend this company! I recently purchased a canvas art print from Craft fine art. The timing and shipping were perfect, however when I received the piece it was darker than I'd expected. I contacted the company and they apologized and had no problem printing out a new image, sending me a photo to approve, then sending it right off to me, and it was perfect! Great communication, really nice people to deal with, and excellent shipping, beautiful work. Looking forward to the next pieces I'm ordering. Many thanks!

Very good experience Requested a painting as gift for one of my siblings. The product is very well and of high-quality, very much appreciated. The package was good while the delivery takes longer due to logistics issues in the country of destination. However, when requested, the shop has kept us posted about the package tracking.

Good quality prints but awkward to hang My two framed prints arrived within a reasonable time. The print quality and the framing is good. My only criticism is that the only means of hanging the print is via a brass "eye" (I don't know the technical term) at the top of the frame on the reverse side. You can put a hook into it, but the hook will be partially visible. I would have preferred that a string be attached to the reverse of the frame to allow hanging.

High quality and Integrity This company I would highly recommend. Their prints are extremely good quality and there is a feeling of integrity and care.. If all companies were like this the world would be a far better place! I would recommend to the customer though having your delivery sent to the carrier depot nearest to you rather than your house, as reviews for the carrier being able to find your house are not always good. It is then guaranteed that you receive your goods.
