Etching, design for wood panelling (boiserie). Sheet 410 x 275mm, 16 x 10¾". Trimmed to plate.
Ornamental rococo frame surrounding a scene representing Artemis/Diana sitting on clouds with, behind her, a monumental doorway and hunters in a landscape. Boiseries were popular in seventeenth and eighteenth century French interior design and the Palace of Versailles has many fine examples.

Often pictures would be set into the boiseries, the carving framing the picture rather like a conventional frame. After Antoine Watteau ( 1684 - 1721), from the 'Recueil Jullienne' series, Plate 87 to 'L'Oeuvre d'Antoine Watteau Peintre du Roy'. Jean de Jullienne (1686 - 1766) was a Parisian collector and patron of the arts who owned some 450 drawings by Watteau, and had them engraved.
