Sul dipinto
Piat-Joseph Sauvage (1744-1818) was a Flemish painter who trained at Antwerp under the supervision of J. Geraerts and G. van Spaendonk. He was in Paris by 1774 and enjoyed there a great success, specialising in trompe-l’oeil and grisaille paintings. He became a member of the Académie Royale in 1783.
This work is a typical example of Netherlandish decorative paintings, which developed at the end of the 18th century under the influence of the French Rococo. It shows a company of putti playing with flowers and imitates classical low-relief in trompe-l’oeil. This painting was probably used as an overdoor decoration.
