Label Text:These two small etchings by Antoine Watteau suggest why he is considered one of the finest and most innovative of the 18th-century painters who also made prints. He broke new ground by exploring the freedom and spontaneity possible with the etching process—consider the view of the woman—and set the stage for the great 18th-century painter-engravers.
