"Jean-Antoine Watteau was a French painter and draughtsman whose brief career spurred the revival of interest in colour and movement as seen in the tradition of Correggio and Rubens. He revitalized the waning Baroque style shifting it to the less severe more naturalistic less formally classical Rococo. Watteau is credited with inventing the genre of fetes galantes scenes of bucolic and idyllic charm suffused with a theatrical air. Some of his best known subjects were drawn from the world of Italian comedy and ballet. S.N hardcover books

La Cause Badine

1747réf. 16913Paris: chez Gersaint et chez Surugue 1747. Engraving printed on laid paper. Very good condition with the exception of some repair in the bottom right hand corner of sheet. Image size: 13 7/8 x 19 inches. A charming arabesque depicting a group of children playfully engaged in an argument from Moyreau's "Oeuvres Des Estampes Gravées d'après Les Tableaux & Desseins de feu Antoine Watteau." Born in Valenciennes in 1684 the versatile artist Jean-Antoine Watteau was primarily renowned for his fête galante paintings depicting aristocratic men and women amorously conversing in the outdoors. Following a brief apprenticeship to the local painter Jacques-Albert Gérin Watteau moved to Paris in 1702 where he later studied with Claude Gillot scene painter for the comédie italienne who introduced him to the commedia dell'arte which later became a recurrent theme in his work. In 1708 he began to work with the decorator Claude Audran under whose tutelage he produced several innovative ornamental decorations that were for porcelain furniture and textiles. Watteau was also a prolific draughtsman and his varied and substantial oeuvre includes military genre religious mythological and theatrical scenes as well as tapestry cartoons. After Watteau's death in 1721 his friend Jean de Jullienne commissioned a comprehensive body of engravings after the artist's drawings and paintings which further solidified his reputation as one of the most influential and prominent artists of the Rococo period.

DECOUPAGE - FURNITURE DECORATION [WATTEAU, Antoine]ABAA

Paravent de six feuilles

1740réf. 2420Augsburg: Johann Jacob Haid & son 1740. Six tall narrow folio-sized engravings with etching platemarks 400 x 207 mm. sheets 435 x 277 mm. deckle edges unsigned but by Jacop Wangner after Watteau numbered 1-6 in the plate at lower right imprint at lower right I. Haid et filius excudit A. V. Augustae Vindelicorum. Upper edges archivally tipped to mats. Fine. A perfectly preserved suite of six large rococo engravings reproducing Watteau's paintings for a folding screen intended to be cut out by ladies for use in furniture decoration. Watteau's influence on 18th-century decorative arts throughout Europe by way of the many engravings after his work published by Gersaint has long been recognized but the use of the engravings as actual sheets to be cut up and applied to household objects has garnered little attention until recently. The vogue for decoupage probably first appeared in the late seventeenth century and by the 1720s the hobby of cutting out colored prints for application to various household objects and pieces of furniture was all the rage in France Germany and beyond. The process which remained a favorite pastime throughout the eighteenth century was known as la découpure in French as Ausschneidekunst in German and as lacca contrafatta or lacca povera in Italian although "the latter term appears to be a true misnomer considering the amount of minute work involved" Kisluk-Grosheide p. 83. It consisted of neatly cutting out hand-colored engraved or woodcut motifs or figures applying them to a textile or sometimes cardboard ground and varnishing them. These creations were applied to furniture as well as to "screens folding screens wall hangings ceilings the tops of coaches and sedan chairs" loc. cit. affording a passable imitation of Asian lacquer. The craze which created a goldmine for certain print publishers reached the point that bibliophiles and collectors were warned to keep a vigilant eye on their most precious books prints and paintings lest eager young ladies attack them with scissors. In 1728 six engravings after Watteau's paintings for a folding screen were commissioned by the art collector Jean de Julienne as part of a vast program of reproductions of Watteau's painted oeuvre. They were engraved by Louis Crépy fils and published by the Paris marchand-mercier art dealer and print publisher Edmé-François Gersaint. An announcement of their upcoming publication in the November 1727 Mercure de France explicitly described them and two other Crépy-Watteau engravings as "marvelously appropriate for decoupages with which ladies these days make such pretty furniture" Crépy grave actuellement six morceaux en hauteur . d'après un Paravant peint par Watau dont les compositions sont très-galantes. De pareils sujets peints sur des fonds blancs conviennent à merveille aux découpures dont les Dames font aujourd'hui de si jolis meubles Mercure de France 1 Novembre 1727 p. 2492 digitized on Gallica. Indeed the publisher himself highlighted this usage in his own note in a later issue of the Mercure cited by Glorieux p. 212: pointing out that all of the decorative motifs in the Watteau engravings were "most useful for painters fan-makers sculptors goldsmiths tapestry-weavers embroiderers etc." he added that "all these ornaments can be perfectly used in decoupage" tous ces ornements réussissent parfaitement en découpure. These and other rococo engravings were quickly taken up by German publishers especially in Augsburg Metken p. 102. This paravent folding screen suite was one of the first of the Watteau engravings to be copied in Germany. The present very close reverse copies of Crépy's six plates appeared in Augsburg only a few months after their publication in June 1728 in Paris: engraved by Jacob Wangner or Wagner ca. 1703-1781 they were published by the heirs of Jeremias Wolff in 1729. This set is an otherwise unrecorded reissue of the Wangner copperplates. A lavishly decoupage-decorated secretary in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art includes cutouts that were almost certainly from these Augsburg plates as they are from "reverse copies of the prints by Crépy" Kisluk-Grosheide p. 88 noting other examples of Augsburg copies of Watteau prints used on the same secretary. Her assertion that "it has not been shown that these engravings were actually used for this purpose" p. 84 is only applicable to the French plates. Indeed other examples of lacca povera objects described in her article point to the German production of copies of French rococo prints as the main source for decoupage at this time on pieces produced throughout Europe including in Italy and in France itself. The general title appears at the foot of the first plate. Each engraving presents a central figure or scene set within a frame of delicate rococo arabesques and ornaments. Three show the Comédie italienne figures of Pierrot Harlequin and Colombine a woman playing the lute on a rug-bedecked stage a pair of allegorical figures flanking an awning above and at bottom the smiling visage of a Commedia dell'Arte character of the opposite sex. The remaining pastoral scenes of courtship or douceur de vie are set within naturalistic elements two with streams flowing over a dripping shell-shaped basin or ledge under which a ghostly face can be dimly discerned. Watteau's designs were based on earlier designs by Claude III Audran decorative painter for Louis XIV at Versailles and Fontainebleau to whom Watteau had apprenticed. "After joining forces with ornamentalist Claude III Audran about 1708 he Watteau began inserting figures in Comédie-Italienne costumes into Audran's trademark arabesques" Judy Sund "Watteau's Pierrots Why so Sad" The Art Bulletin vol. 98 no. 3 2016 p. 325 reproducing the Pierrot panel from the present series. OCLC locates a single copy of the Wolff issue at the Bibliothèque nationale de France reproduced in Gallica. In the present issue of which I locate no other copies the engraver's signatures were removed. On the Wolff issue cf. W. Augustyn "Augsburger Buchillustration im 18.
