Descripción: John Paul Getty Museum.
«"Courage, my friend Greuze, go ahead and moralize with your paintbrush, and always continue in this manner!" enthused art critic Denis Diderot. After training in Lyon, Jean-Baptiste Greuze arrived in Paris in 1750, where he sporadically attended the Académie Royale. His 1755 Salon debut was a triumph, but the acclamation turned his head. He antagonized everyone, including fellow artists, which later proved disastrous.»
