More an evocation than a portrait, this idyllic work of conjures a young girl under the spell of her literary treasure. Frenchman Fragonard was said to paint in a flash, with quick, fluid strokes and broad unblended bands of startling color that made the subject, not the technique, the focus of the painting. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its bold brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica 4.375" wide, European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image.
