EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Quiquengrogne windmill at Charenton, or the Charenton Windmill" painted by Francois Boucher in the mid-18th century. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 72x91 cm and is currently housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Orleans, France. In this picturesque scene, we are transported to a serene countryside setting. A charming thatched cottage with a rickety appearance stands near the riverbank, surrounded by lush greenery. The focal point of the painting is undoubtedly the magnificent windmill known as Le Moulin de Quiquengrogne, formerly called Le Moulin de Charenton. As we explore further into this artwork's details, we notice a delightful array of elements. A gentle stream flows nearby while birds gracefully soar through the sky above. A woman can be seen walking along an arching bridge with her trusty walking stick or cane in hand. Adding to its rustic charm, doves flutter around a dovecote perched atop one of the cottage's walls. A bucket sits idly on some steps leading down to the water's edge. Francois Boucher masterfully captures both tranquility and rural beauty within this composition. With his skilled brushstrokes and attention to detail, he invites us into a world where time seems to stand still—a moment frozen forever on canvas for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and admire.
