Gevleugelde grijsaard omvat naakte jonge vrouw 1680 - 1715

François Boitard's "Gevleugelde grijsaard omvat naakte jonge vrouw" is a delicate pen and ink drawing from 1680-1715. The composition features a winged, elderly figure embracing a nude, youthful woman. The contrast between the figures' ages and poses underscores a narrative of youthful beauty held captive by the passage of time. The artist's loose, expressive lines create a sense of movement and energy, adding to the drama of the scene. The drawing exemplifies the artist's mastery of line and his interest in depicting allegorical and emotional themes.
