Their generous proportions and broad horizontal oval format give the compositions a graceful, expansive presence on the wall. One scene shows an elegantly dressed couple leaning together beside a stone pedestal, with roses and a small dog adding to the intimate garden setting; the other depicts a young woman and her companion beside a fountain, surrounded by classical sculpture, greenery and musical instruments. Painted in a soft palette of rose pinks, greens and warm creams, both scenes evoke the romantic decorative world associated with Fragonard and Boucher. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e The pair is presented in giltwood oval frames in the Louis XVI taste, with beaded inner borders and finely repeated classical ornament.
