Ragotin intoxicated by La Rancune,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating masterpiece by Jean-Baptiste Oudry from the 18th century, presents a striking depiction of two figures engrossed in a lively scene of literary merriment. The black and white chalk heightened with white and touches of brush and black ink drawing on blue laid paper portrays the characters from Paul Scarron's Le Roman Comique, a popular French literary work of the Rococo era. The central figure, Ragotin, is shown with a mischievous grin, his eyes sparkling with intoxication as he clutches a bottle of wine. His companion, La Rancune, a woman with an expressive face and a wry smile, holds a quill pen, perhaps alluding to her role as a scribe or poet. The pair is nestled in a cozy interior, with a roaring fireplace adding warmth to the scene. The grey tones of the drawing contrast beautifully with the vibrant personalities of the characters, transporting us to a bygone era of French literature and culture. This exquisite artwork, a testament to the artistic prowess of Jean-Baptiste Oudry, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and literature. It can be found in the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. The intricate details and rich historical significance make "Ragotin intoxicated by La Rancune" a truly remarkable addition to any art collection or gallery exhibition.
