"The Three Graces" is a print created by French artist Jean François Janinet (1752-1814). The print depicts the three Graces, goddesses of beauty, charm and pleasure in Greek mythology, standing in a landscape. The Graces are traditionally depicted as nude figures, symbolizing the beauty of the human form. Janinet's interpretation of the subject captures the graceful, harmonious, and idealized beauty of the figures, typical of the Neoclassical style. The print's soft, pastel colors, and delicate lines contribute to the overall sense of grace and elegance. This print is now in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.
