For centuries, the graceful figure of female was an everlasting theme that artists endeavored to depict. Among them, François Boucher is one of the best. When a girl’s long lustrous hair dropped upon her smooth skin, even the heart made of stone will be tempted.
From Boucher to Greuze, the beauty of female was glorified by numerous artists in history. With the accompany of dozens of masterpieces from 18-19th centuries displayed in this splendid building, an ordinary afternoon also became a journey through times. After several months of lockdown, we finally saw the doors of various museums in Paris reopened. According to some true parisien, the latest exhibition“L'Empire des sens, de Boucher à Greuze” organized by Musée Cognacq-Jay is definitely a must-see!
