EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 18th century watercolor painting by Etienne Jeaurat, titled "Girl covers the eyes of a youth," captures a moment of surprise and playful interaction between two young individuals. The scene takes place in a domestic setting, with a young woman standing behind a writing boy and covering his eyes with her hands. The boy, seated at a writing desk, is intently focused on his work, unaware of the mischievous act unfolding behind him. The girl, dressed in a fashionable bonnet and clothing of the Rococo era, wears a knowing smile as she executes her playful deception. The use of color in the painting is striking, with the white clothing and chalk on paper contrasting against the rich hues of the girl's dress and the wooden furniture. The painting, which is part of the Dutch heritage art collection at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, provides a glimpse into the daily life of the European aristocracy during the Rococo era. The difficulty and intrigue of the scene are further emphasized by the use of pencil and watercolor paint, which add texture and depth to the image. Overall, this painting is a visual delight, full of surprise, color, and the simple joys of youth.
