22 ⅰ. Antoine Watteau L'Enseigne de Gersaint (1720): In one of Watteau's last paintings, the portrait of Louis XIV and his own artworks are being packed away. The painter had no reason to expect that his name would be remembered long.

23 Watteau's commedia dell'arte player of Pierrot, ca 1718-19, traditionally identified as "Gilles" (Louvre) La Boudeuse from the Hermitage Museum: "Flirting coquettishly yet innocently, the artist's imaginary heroes – the deliberately indifferent lady and her insistently attentive cavalier – are shown with gentle irony. Their fragile, elegant world is dominated by a lyrical mood with just a touch of elegiac melancholy."

24 ⅱ. Francois Boucher The Toilet of Venus (1751) typifies the superficially pleasing elegance of Boucher's mature style. The Breakfast (1739). Marie-Louise O'Murphy c. 1752
