According to Jean-Antoine Watteau (1684 - 1721) - Embarkation for

Descriptio Pastel. Dimensions: 74 × 100 cm. This pastel is inspired by Watteau’s famous composition depicting the amorous embarkation for the island of Cythera, a symbol of love and the gallant ideal in French Rococo painting. The work recreates the scenic arrangement and poetic atmosphere of the original, with elegant figures set in an idyllic, dreamlike landscape. Executed as a later reinterpretation, the piece testifies to Watteau’s enduring influence on European painting and the continued interest in his fête galante scenes.
