The Feast of Love is a 1718 oil by Jean Antoine Watteau, a Rococo painting work, held at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden.
You are looking at a painting. Here's what you see: A lush outdoor scene with trees, grass, and a statue of a nude woman. People in 18th-century clothing are gathered around, some sitting, others standing. The colors are soft, with lots of greens and browns. What's interesting is the way the light filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows on the ground. It's a peaceful scene, with everyone seeming to enjoy each other's company. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of Jean Antoine Watteau.
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.
