eBay Francois Boucher Le Mouton Favori Engraved by Gaillard. Beautifully framed and colored engraving. Title: Le Mouton Favori (The Favoured Sheep) Artist: René Gaillard (French, ca. 1719–1790 Paris) Artist: After François Boucher (French, Paris 1703–1770 Paris) Date: 18th century Medium: Etching and engraving ‘Le Mouton Favori’ (‘the favoured sheep’), the setting for this bucolic scene is a wood, with a creek (even with a modest waterfall) and a romantic ruin in the background. A shepherd and shepherdess – quite similar to the other two – are sitting next to each other; the young man has a sheep on his lap and holds a rose over the girl’s head, while she is going to tie a red ribbon with a bow around the neck of the apparently favoured sheep. Some sheep resting by the shepherds feet and a dog begging his mistress for attention with a mixture of curiosity and jealousy all add to an atmosphere of affection. Like many 18th century pastoral scenes, it is symbolic rather than literal, an allegory on the power of love and devotion. Engraved by René Gaillard, after a painting (now considered lost) titled ‘Le Mouton Favori’ by the notable French genre painter Charles Dominique Eisen (1720-1778), whose paintings were immensely popular with an art market eager for romantic and idyllic images. Charles Eisen has been described as “a real libertine, whose debauchery shocked his contemporaries even in that far from prudish century” (Jean Adhémar, Graphic art of the 18th century (1964), p. 53). The famous Madame de Pompadour (1721-1764), mistress of king Louis XV of France, a great admirer of Boucher, was fond of the work of Eisen as well and managed to have him appointed ‘peintre de la cour’ (court painter). Charles Eisen was even granted the honour of instructing Madame de Pompadour in drawing, a privilege ensuring court favours as well as aristocratic patronage. This engraving by Gaillard was mentioned in various publications. In 1767, the French periodical L’Avantcoureur wrote about the engraving ‘le Mouton favori’: “tandis que la jeune beauté orne son Mouton de rubans, le Berger place une rose dans les cheveux de son amante” (“while the young beauty adorns her sheep with rubans, the herd places a rose in the hair of his lover”). The herd and herdess were “aimable et piquante” (“of an amiable and sensual”) and the whole scenery was rendered “avec beaucoup d’intelligence et de goût” (“with a lot of intelligence and taste”). In 1774, a Dutch publication, discussing various engravings, mentions “le Mouton favori” as an art print “in den Franschen smaak” (“in the French taste”), where a “herderinne (…) een lam, op des herders knie rustende, een lint omhangt, dat haar hondje tot jaloersheid schynt te verwekken” (“where a herdess puts a ribbon on a lamb, resting on the knee of a herd, which arouses jealousy in her dog”).
