Jean-Honoré Fragonard's "Nymph Supported by Two Satyrs" is a 1763 etching depicting a nymph being held aloft by two satyrs. The scene is framed by an oval and set within a landscape, likely intended to evoke a sense of the wild and natural. Fragonard, a prominent figure of the Rococo movement, is known for his delicate lines and playful subject matter. This work exemplifies his mastery of the etching medium and his enduring fascination with classical mythology.
