Young Girl Reading Oil on Canvas Art: 20 x 25
Fragonard’s brushwork is as much the subject of this painting as the young woman. A flurry of rapid marks captures her blushing face. Bold, fluid strokes of unblended color define her dress, ribbons, and cushion. Fragonard created the lace of her ruff (the frill around her neck) and the bodice of her dress by dragging his brush handle through the paint while it was still wet. Young Girl Readingis part of the “fantasy portrait” series, in which Fragonard’s friends and patrons are dressed in elaborate costumes.
This is NOT a print. This is an oil on canvas hand painted piece likely a reproduction of the original completed in the early 1900s. No signature can be found.
