Jacques-Nicolas JULLIARD (1715-1790)
Oil on canvasDimensions: 58 X 45 cm
Without frame and 70 X 57 cm
In the foreground a young woman milks her goats while a shepherd watches over his small flock. A beautiful soft and enveloping atmosphere of late autumn attracts us and draws our gaze towards this little house perched in the tree. The painter uses a monochrome palette for this unusual landscape but reserves the color, blue and red, for the characters.After training at the Royal Academy, Jacques-Nicolas Julliart became Boucher's student. It was with him that he was introduced to the decorative arts a few years later. Very quickly he specialized in landscape painting and left for Italy in 1749 where he produced the View of Frascati. Back in France he worked for the Beauvais factory painting preparatory cartoons for tapestries. His work earned him the appointment of painter to the King of the Felletin and Aubusson factories. In 1759 he was admitted to the Royal Academy on presentation of "Landscape with Rising Sun", preserved in the Tours museum.
Very present at the Salon between 1755 and 1785, his paintings were highly sought after.
