A set of fifteen miniatures, intended to be mounted as clothing buttons, on a pink velvet background and set in a gilded wooden frame. A label affixed to the back of the frame reads: “Buttons painted by Jean-François Janinet 1752–1814 Paris. School of the Royal Academy, March 1772. ” These miniatures depict mythological scenes, courtly scenes, lively landscapes, and seascapes based on works by famous 18th-century painters (Demachy, Boucher, Huet, Fragonard, Vernet...) . Best known as an engraver, Janinet was also an excellent draftsman; he received formal training in drawing and painting at the Royal Academy. Not only did he draw, but he also exhibited his drawings as works in their own right. Here are three drawings, studies presented by Janinet at the 1793 Salon under no. 315. Late 18th century. Diameter: 3.3 cm
