According to Jean-Antoine Watteau (1684–1721) — Embarkation for the Island of Cythera, 19th century Pastel. Dimensions: 74 × 100 cm. This pastel is inspired by Watteau’s famous composition depicting the romantic embarkation for the island of Cythera, a symbol of love and the gallant ideal in French Rococo painting. The work recreates the scenic arrangement and poetic atmosphere of the original, featuring elegant figures set in an idyllic, dreamlike landscape. Created as a later reinterpretation, the piece attests to Watteau’s enduring influence on European painting and the continued interest in his “fête galante” scenes. This item is stored in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export permit from the country of origin may be required. Due to its age and history of use, this lot may show signs of wear and previous interventions. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, no specialized technical testing has been performed. The absence of any mention of restorations does not guarantee that none exist. You may request additional information before placing a bid. This does not affect the buyer’s statutory rights.
