Le Goûter is a 1764 paint by Louis-Marin Bonnet, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This scene shows a family eating outdoors by a fancy building. The woman in a blue dress and hat sits with a child on her lap, while a man in a red coat serves them from a tray. A servant kneels nearby, and another child plays on the ground. The garden has potted plants, a tree, and a small statue in the background. The title *Le Goûter* means "afternoon snack," showing a quiet moment of daily life. The colors are soft, and the details are sharp, suggesting a focus on everyday elegance. Look up Baroque next to see how this style shaped art.
