JEAN-HONORÉ FRAGONARD. Fanfan

JEAN-HONORÉ FRAGONARD. Fanfan. Artist: Jean Honoré Fragonard (French, Grasse 1732-1806 Paris). Dimensions: sheet: 10 1/8 x 7 3/8 in. (25.7 x 18.8 cm) image: 9 3/4 x 6 13/16 in. (24.7 x 17.3 cm). Date: 1778. Fragonard excelled at portraying small children in images that capture their innocence and playfulness. Here, a charmingly disheveled child with blond curls rushes forward clutching his dolls while two tiny dogs try to pull one from his grasp. Using a wide range of marks, from hatching to wiggles to dots, Fragonard contrasts the sunlit paleness of the boy with a shadowy background. Although the model has not survived, other prints made in 1778 by the artist suggest that this etching is based on a brown wash drawing, in reverse direction and probably of larger dimensions than the print. His pupil, and sister-in-law, Marguerite Gérard also made an etching after the same model.
