Bosrand c. 1765 - 1775

"Bosrand" is a pencil sketch by Jean-Honoré Fragonard, dating from circa 1765-1775. The drawing, which is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a landscape scene, featuring a dense grove of trees rendered in delicate strokes. The drawing's simplicity and emphasis on natural forms highlight Fragonard's keen eye for observation and his mastery of the sketch as a medium. Fragonard's artistic legacy includes numerous paintings and drawings, but his sketches provide a unique glimpse into his creative process and his fascination with the natural world.
