Dans la vie de Jean-Honoré Fragonard
La vie entière1760
Travels through Italy with Hubert Robert
Together with Hubert Robert he traveled across Italy, making numerous sketches of the local scenery. In the romantic gardens with their fountains, grottoes, temples and terraces, Fragonard found the imagery he would later embody in his art.
c. 1761
Studio in the Louvre
On his return to Paris he received a studio in the Louvre palace, where he lived, and was put in charge of the decoration of the Galerie d'Apollon.
1761
Return to France via Venice and southern Italy
Having lived in Rome until April 1761, he left the Eternal City with his patron the Abbé de Saint-Non and Hubert Robert: he visited Florence, Bologna and Venice, where he studied Tiepolo, made a journey to southern Italy, and returned to France.
