The work and its artist

Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806)

Jean-Honoré Nicolas Fragonard was born on 5 April 1732 in Grasse and died on 22 August 1806 in Paris. He is one of the main representatives of the French rococo style. He was a painter of history, genre and landscapes, but soon specialised in the libertine genre and gallant scenes, as shown in his famous painting The Lock.
