18th-century French School, Circle Of Louis Léopold Boilly
An 18th-century French school oil on canvas, attributed to the circle of Louis Léopold Boilly (1761–1845), depicting a young shepherdess in an intimate genre scene.
The composition shows, on the right, a young girl wearing a straw hat and holding her staff.
She stands out against the background with her light-colored blouse and blue apron.
On the left is a seated figure, wrapped in a brown coat.
In the background, in the dim light, one can make out the figure of the Virgin Mary, perhaps symbolizing winter.
This painting features a rich color palette and a subdued, dark atmosphere that highlights the shepherdess.
This 18th-century work has been recently restored.
Re-stretching the canvas and replacing the stretcher frame proved necessary to preserve this work.
