This piece is called The Swing by Jean-Honoré Fragonard. A famous 18th century French Rococo painting that changed the trajectory of his career and ended up being his greatest masterpiece. It was a private commission that he was never supposed to create in the first place, but we're glad he did! Although it looks light-hearted and playful, things aren't always as they seem. There are many hidden symbols and meanings in this painting that make it so interesting to look at. Thank you for watching!
