EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "A fop grabs a lady's hand in a kissing game, 18th century" transports us back to the elegant and playful world of 18th-century France. Created by Nicolas Lancret and reproduced as a print by Nicolas de Larmassin, this artwork captures a moment from the popular kissing game known as Pied de Boeuf. In the heart of a lush glade surrounded by children, we witness an amusing scene unfold. A dashing fop, dressed impeccably in his finest attire, boldly reaches out to grab the hand of a beautiful lady. The atmosphere is filled with laughter and excitement as they engage in this mischievous game. The lithograph beautifully portrays the carefree spirit of leisurely activities during that era. It offers us a glimpse into the past when people found joy in simple pleasures such as games played amidst nature's embrace. The black-and-white composition adds depth and timelessness to the image while capturing every intricate detail. The forest setting with its towering pine and spruce trees creates an enchanting backdrop for this lively gathering. As we admire this remarkable piece from our private collection, let us be transported to an era where enjoyment was found in moments like these – where laughter echoed through woodland glades and innocence reigned supreme.
