François Bouchers »Ruhendes Mädchen«
Experience the captivating artwork of François Boucher featuring the piece titled »Ruhendes Mädchen« (Resting Girl). This stunning representation of a young girl reclining on a sofa embodies the essence of the Rococo period. Created by Boucher (1703-1770), this portrayal of nude femininity boldly bypasses the typical mythological or historical context often associated with erotic art, making it a daring choice even in the Age of Enlightenment. Visitors will ponder the identity of the girl depicted and the intended audience for this intriguing artwork.
The exhibition includes a comprehensive accompanying program featuring art consultations every Sunday from 12:00 to 16:00, workshops, and guided tours in Hall XII until July 6, 2025.
