Moyreau, a French engraver active in the eighteenth century, is depicted within a trompe l'oeil oval frame that rests upon a stone plinth. The composition follows the conventions of the period, presenting the artist in a three-quarter view, dressed in the attire of a gentleman of the era, complete with a powdered wig and cravat. He holds a drawing board, signalling his craft, while his posture suggests a moment of quiet reflection during his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe technical execution demonstrates the precision characteristic of Moyreau's output. The use of line work to define the textures of his clothing, the curls of his wig, and the folds of the drapery behind him reveals a high level of control over the burin. The oval frame itself is rendered with subtle shading to create a sense of depth, separating the subject from the surrounding architectural space. The inscription on the plinth identifies him as the 'Graveur du Roy' (Engraver to the King) and a member of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, providing a clear record of his status within the French art establishment of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a self-portrait, the work functions as both a personal statement and a professional calling card. It documents the appearance of the artist at the height of his career while simultaneously showcasing his technical proficiency in the medium of engraving. The print remains a valuable historical record of the artist's identity and his role within the artistic circles of eighteenth-century France. The monochromatic palette and the focus on linear detail make this an excellent example of the portraiture traditions that defined the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-jacob-pleydell-bouverie-james-mcardell\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Jacob Pleydell-Bouverie - James McArdell — James MacArdell\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58485968961871,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58485975941455,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58485975974223,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58485976006991,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58485976039759,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58485976072527,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58485976105295,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58485976138063,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58485976170831,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58485976203599,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58485976236367,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58485976269135,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Self-Portrait-of-Jean-Moyreau_Poster_CompositorV1_1786371248463.jpg?v=1786847647"},{"product_id":"the-little-horse-fair-jean-moyreau","title":"The Little Horse Fair - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed 1738 engraving by Jean Moyreau, depicting a rural horse fair based on a painting by Philips Wouwerman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis engraving, titled La Petite Foire aux Chevaux, is a reproduction of an original painting by the Dutch Golden Age master Philips Wouwerman. Jean Moyreau, a French engraver, produced this work in 1738, dedicating it to Victor Amadeus, Prince of Carignan. The print captures a busy scene of commerce and daily life, centred on the trading of horses in a rural setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the foreground, several horses are depicted in various states of rest and movement, attended by figures in period attire. A large, makeshift canopy provides shade for the traders, while the background features a rustic building with a ladder leaning against its side, suggesting a farm or stable environment. The composition employs a wide, open sky that balances the activity below, typical of the Dutch influence on Moyreau's work. The technical execution demonstrates the precision of eighteenth-century printmaking, with fine lines used to define the musculature of the animals and the textures of the clothing and landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inclusion of the coat of arms and the formal dedication at the base of the print reflects the social conventions of the period, where such works were often commissioned or presented to nobility to demonstrate status and artistic patronage. The scene is quiet yet industrious, focusing on the interaction between humans and animals. The print provides a window into the aesthetic preferences of the eighteenth-century French court, which held a particular appreciation for the pastoral and genre subjects popularised by Dutch painters like Wouwerman.

It is based on an original painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Philips Wouwerman. The work depicts a busy outdoor scene situated near a classical stone structure, which serves as the titular fountain. Figures gather around the water source, while horses and riders occupy the foreground, suggesting a moment of rest during a journey or a hunt. The composition draws heavily from the Dutch tradition of genre painting, where everyday activities are rendered with attention to both human interaction and the surrounding environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoyreau was well-known for his ability to translate the tonal qualities of oil paintings into the medium of print. His technique employs a variety of line weights and cross-hatching to suggest the texture of stone, the softness of foliage, and the reflective quality of water. The architecture on the left provides a vertical anchor, balancing the expansive, open view of the countryside that stretches toward the horizon on the right. The inclusion of the inscription at the bottom, noting the original painting was in the collection of Monsieur de Fontperuis, reflects the common practice of the eighteenth century to document the provenance of the source material within the print itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece offers a glimpse into the European appetite for Dutch masterworks during the eighteenth century.

It is a reproduction of an original painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Philips Wouwerman. Moyreau was a prolific printmaker who frequently translated the works of Dutch masters into the medium of engraving for the French market, often working under the royal privilege.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition depicts a military encampment, a subject frequently explored by Wouwerman. In the foreground, soldiers and their horses gather near a cluster of tents. The figures are rendered with careful attention to the textures of their clothing and the musculature of the horses. To the left, a large, gnarled tree provides a vertical anchor for the scene, while the right side opens into a broader, atmospheric view of the camp. The sky is filled with voluminous, rolling clouds, a common feature in seventeenth-century Dutch military scenes, which Moyreau captures through varied cross-hatching and tonal depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print demonstrates the technical skill required to translate the painterly qualities of an oil painting into a monochrome medium.

The work is a clear example of the reproductive print culture of the eighteenth century, which allowed the designs of major painters to reach a wider audience through the medium of engraving. The print retains the light, airy quality associated with Watteau's work, despite the inherent formality of the engraved medium. It provides a window into the aesthetic priorities of the era, where elegance and decorative harmony were paramount in both public and private visual culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-jacob-pleydell-bouverie-james-mcardell\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Jacob Pleydell-Bouverie - James McArdell — James MacArdell\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486051471695,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486108586319,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486108619087,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486108651855,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486108684623,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486108717391,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486108750159,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486108782927,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486108815695,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486108848463,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486108881231,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486108913999,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Colombine-et-Arlequin_Poster_CompositorV1_1786372085343.jpg?v=1786848577"},{"product_id":"la-colation-jean-moyreau","title":"La Colation - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eA fine eighteenth-century engraving by Jean Moyreau, reproducing Antoine Watteau's pastoral scene of figures enjoying a picnic in a wooded setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis engraving, titled La Colation, is the work of the French printmaker Jean Moyreau.

It is a clear example of the collaborative relationship between painters and engravers during the Enlightenment, where the reproductive print served as a primary medium for artistic circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486133686607,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486182347087,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486182379855,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486182412623,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486182445391,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486182478159,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486182510927,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486182543695,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486182576463,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486182609231,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486182641999,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486182674767,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/La-Colation_Poster_CompositorV1_1786373166050.jpg?v=1786849358"},{"product_id":"the-presentation-of-the-hunter-jean-moyreau","title":"The Presentation of the Hunter - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn 18th-century etching by Jean Moyreau after Philips Wouwerman, depicting a detailed hunting scene with figures and horses in a classical setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fine etching and engraving by Jean Moyreau, dated 1738, reproduces a painting by the Dutch master Philips Wouwerman. Moyreau was a prolific printmaker who dedicated much of his career to translating the works of Wouwerman into the medium of engraving, often for the collection of the Duc d'Orléans.

In the foreground, figures interact with horses, while a dog rests near a fallen game animal. The background reveals a distant town, rendered with fine lines that suggest atmospheric depth.

The print demonstrates the precision of the burin and etching needle, with fine lines used to create texture in the fabric and depth in the decorative borders.

Moyreau was known for his technical precision in translating the painterly qualities of Dutch works into the medium of print. The composition captures a busy scene of travellers and horses gathered near a water source, set against a backdrop of rustic architecture and rocky terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the foreground, figures and horses are depicted in various states of activity. Some individuals tend to their mounts, while others rest near the water. The architecture, featuring a crumbling structure built into the hillside, provides a sense of age and wear. The sky is filled with billowing clouds, which Moyreau renders with fine hatching to suggest movement and atmospheric depth. The scene reflects the interest in everyday life and travel that characterised Wouwerman's work, often focusing on the interaction between humans, animals, and the natural environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an engraver, Moyreau employed a variety of line weights to define the textures of the stone, the foliage, and the clothing of the figures. The inclusion of a coat of arms and detailed text at the base of the print indicates its provenance as a formal reproduction, likely intended for collectors of fine prints during the eighteenth century. The work demonstrates the skill required to replicate the tonal range of an oil painting using only black ink on paper. The balance between the detailed foreground and the receding vista creates a sense of space, drawing the eye across the scene from the immediate activity by the water to the distant hills.

The print remains a fine example of the technical skill required to execute such detailed, multi-layered compositions in the medium of etching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/charles-gabriel-de-tubieres-de-caylus-bishop-of-auxerre-georg-friedrich-schmidt\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eCharles Gabriel de Tubières de Caylus, Bishop of Auxerre - Georg Friedrich Schmidt — Georg Friedrich Schmidt\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486433808719,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486445965647,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486445998415,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486446031183,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486446063951,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486446096719,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486446129487,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486446162255,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486446195023,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486446227791,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486446260559,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486446293327,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Momus_Poster_CompositorV1_1786376165999.jpg?v=1786853758"},{"product_id":"halt-alte-copiarum-quies-jean-moyreau","title":"Halt (Alte Copiarum Quies) - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed 18th-century etching by Jean Moyreau after Antoine Watteau, depicting a group of soldiers and civilians resting in a wooded encampment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fine etching and engraving by Jean Moyreau, titled 'Halt' or 'Alte Copiarum Quies', reproduces an original painting by the celebrated French artist Antoine Watteau. Moyreau was a skilled printmaker who played a significant role in disseminating the aesthetic of the Rococo period through his reproductions of contemporary masters. The composition depicts a group of soldiers and civilians resting in a wooded area, a common theme in the military genre scenes of the eighteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene is structured around a large, central tree that provides shade for the figures gathered below. To the left, soldiers attend to a fire, while others sit or recline on the grass. A woman in a light-coloured dress stands near the centre, her back to the viewer, creating a sense of casual movement within the static group. The figures are rendered with delicate lines, capturing the textures of their clothing and the dappled light filtering through the foliage. The background features a horse and a cart, suggesting a temporary encampment during a march.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoyreau’s technique demonstrates the precision required for high-quality reproduction in the eighteenth century. He uses varied hatching to create depth and volume, particularly in the shadows cast by the tree and the folds of the garments. The inclusion of Latin and French text beneath the image identifies the work as a faithful reproduction of a painting by Watteau, reflecting the practice of creating prints to document and circulate art from private collections.

The work functions as an allegory, personifying the harmonious relationship between the performing arts. Two female figures, representing the Muses of Music and Comedy, stand on either side of a central heraldic shield. The shield itself is adorned with theatrical and musical symbols, including a mask and musical notation, while various instruments such as a violin, flute, and lute are arranged around it. Above the composition, a laurel wreath signifies artistic achievement and victory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoyreau was a skilled printmaker who frequently translated the painterly qualities of Watteau into the medium of engraving. His technique captures the delicate textures of the drapery and the precise details of the musical instruments.

Moyreau, a skilled French engraver, captures the regal presence of the monarch in profile, a pose that emphasises his distinctive facial features and noble bearing.

The print, executed by the French engraver Jean Moyreau, captures the musician in a moment of creative activity. He is seated at a desk, quill in hand, with a musical manuscript open before him. A violin rests on the desk, signalling his primary instrument and his role within the royal musical establishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoyreau employs a sophisticated technique of etching and engraving to render the textures of the period costume, the powdered wig, and the upholstered chair. The lighting is focused, drawing attention to the composer's face and his work, while the background remains in shadow. This approach is characteristic of eighteenth-century portraiture, which often sought to convey both the social status and the intellectual pursuits of the subject. The inscription at the base of the print identifies Rebel by his official titles, confirming his position within the courtly hierarchy of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition follows the conventions of the time, placing the subject in a domestic or studio setting that reflects his professional identity.

As a historical document, the print offers insight into the visual culture surrounding the musicians of the French court, documenting the appearance and the professional tools of a composer during the reign of Louis XV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/pastoral-landscape-with-the-ponte-molle-claude-lorrain\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePastoral Landscape with the Ponte Molle - Claude Lorrain — Claude Lorrain\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486459433295,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486468018511,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58486468051279,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486468084047,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486468116815,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486468149583,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486468182351,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486468215119,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486468247887,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58486468280655,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58486468313423,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58486468346191,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/J.-B_Poster_CompositorV1_1786377026794.jpg?v=1786854592"},{"product_id":"la-folie-jean-moyreau","title":"La Folie - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eA refined Rococo etching by Jean Moyreau after Antoine Watteau, depicting a personification of Folly within an elaborate ornamental framework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis print, titled La Folie, is an etching and engraving by the French artist Jean Moyreau. It is based on a design by Antoine Watteau. The work functions as a decorative panel, typical of the French Rococo period, where such prints were often used as models for interior wall decorations or boiserie. The central figure represents Folly, depicted as a woman holding a marotte, or jester's staff, topped with a small head. She stands upon a bracket, framed by an elaborate architectural structure that includes trellis work, floral swags, and urns. The composition is symmetrical and highly ordered, reflecting the period's interest in ornamental balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower section of the print features a shelf supported by a console, flanked by two birds perched on scrolling foliage. The fine line work demonstrates the technical skill required for eighteenth-century printmaking, where the engraver had to translate the painterly qualities of Watteau's original design into a series of precise marks. The use of negative space around the central figure allows the decorative elements to frame the subject without overwhelming it. This piece provides a clear example of the ornamental style that defined French interior design during the early eighteenth century, where classical motifs were blended with light, playful elements. The text at the bottom indicates the print was published in Paris, noting the involvement of the publisher Gorce and the royal privilege granted for its distribution.

The print is an example of the high technical standard of French printmaking in the 1700s, where the engraver's role was to translate the painterly qualities of the original work into a monochromatic medium through careful line work and hatching. The cartouche itself is a characteristic feature of the era, displaying the fluid, organic forms that define the Rococo aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/wanhebbelijke-liefde-weduwnaar-joost-en-lucia-pieter-tanje\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eWanhebbelijke liefde: weduwnaar Joost en Lucia - Pieter Tanjé — Pieter Tanjé\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491398848847,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491402846543,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491402879311,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491402912079,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491402944847,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491402977615,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491403010383,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491403043151,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491403075919,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491403108687,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491403141455,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491403174223,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Titlepage-for-Engraved-Works-in-a-Cartouche-Its-Motifs-Inspired-by-Don-Quixote_Poster_CompositorV1_1786378836040.jpg?v=1786922429"},{"product_id":"hooitransport-hay-transport-jean-moyreau","title":"Hooitransport (Hay Transport) - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed etching by Jean Moyreau depicting a rural scene of hay transport, showcasing the technical precision of eighteenth-century printmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis etching and engraving by Jean Moyreau depicts a rural scene of hay transport, capturing the daily labour of the eighteenth-century countryside. Moyreau, a French printmaker, was known for his technical skill in reproducing the works of Dutch masters, particularly Philips Wouwerman. This composition reflects the interest in pastoral life that permeated European art during the period, focusing on the interaction between human activity and the natural environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene is structured around the loading of hay onto a small boat moored at the water's edge. A horse-drawn cart stands nearby, with figures positioned to facilitate the transfer of the harvest. The artist employs a range of tonal values to define the textures of the hay, the wooden boat, and the animals. The sky is filled with voluminous, rolling clouds, which provide a sense of atmospheric depth and movement to the composition. The figures are rendered with attention to their posture and clothing, suggesting the physical effort required for such tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoyreau's work demonstrates the precision of the engraving process, using varied line weights to create shadow and form.

The inclusion of a dog near the water and the specific details of the harness and boat rigging provide a sense of realism. This print offers a view into the agricultural practices of the era, presented with the technical refinement characteristic of eighteenth-century printmaking.

The print, titled La Cause Badine, captures a lighthearted scene set within a highly structured, ornamental frame. The central composition features a fountain, around which figures engage in conversation. This central vignette is surrounded by elaborate decorative elements, including swags of fabric, floral garlands, and herms, which reflect the period's preference for symmetry and theatricality in graphic design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe etching demonstrates the technical precision typical of Moyreau, who is known for his reproductions of works by painters such as Philips Wouwerman.

The inclusion of the title at the base, flanked by scrolling cartouche motifs, suggests this print was intended for a collection of decorative plates or as an independent work for a sophisticated interior.

The etching technique allows for subtle gradations of tone, particularly in the rendering of the figure's dress and the soft, atmospheric background.

The inclusion of a fountain and classical statuary adds a layer of refinement, typical of the period's interest in pastoral and noble themes.

Moyreau, a French engraver active during the eighteenth century, demonstrates a technical command of line and shadow to define the various figures and equipment scattered across the field. The composition is anchored by a large, leafy tree on the right, which provides a vertical counterpoint to the horizontal expanse of the camp. Beneath its boughs, commanders on horseback observe the scene, while soldiers and camp followers occupy the foreground and middle distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work captures the daily life of an army, focusing on the mundane aspects of military existence rather than the heat of battle. Tents, horses, and groups of figures are rendered with a precision that reflects the period interest in genre subjects.

The balance between the foreground figures and the distant horizon provides a sense of depth, inviting the viewer to examine the individual narratives occurring within the larger camp setting.

Moyreau, a French engraver active during the eighteenth century, frequently translated the works of contemporary painters into print, though this composition reflects the pastoral interests common to the period.

The composition balances the figures against a backdrop of trees and an expansive, cloud-filled sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe technique demonstrates the precision characteristic of eighteenth-century printmaking. Moyreau employs varied line weights to define the textures of the foliage, the musculature of the horses, and the folds of the riders' garments. The use of cross-hatching and stippling creates a sense of volume and atmospheric depth, drawing the eye from the foreground figures towards the distant horizon.

This piece offers a glimpse into the aesthetic preferences of the period, where the interplay of light and shadow was used to create depth and atmosphere within a printed format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/de-schilder-door-liefde-pieter-tanje\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eDe schilder door liefde - Pieter Tanjé — Pieter Tanjé\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491605647695,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491609547087,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491609579855,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491609612623,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491609645391,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491609678159,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491609710927,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491609743695,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491609776463,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491609809231,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491609841999,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491609874767,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/La-Grote-de-l-Abreuvoir_Poster_CompositorV1_1786382053687.jpg?v=1786926610"},{"product_id":"verschillende-figuren-in-een-bos-met-twee-huizen-jean-moyreau","title":"Verschillende figuren in een bos met twee huizen - Jean Moyreau","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed eighteenth-century etching by Jean Moyreau depicting figures and rural dwellings within a wooded setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis etching by Jean Moyreau captures a rural scene, typical of the eighteenth-century interest in pastoral life. The composition is structured around a dense cluster of mature trees, which frame the view and create a sense of depth. Beneath the canopy, several figures are engaged in daily activities, including a rider on horseback and pedestrians traversing the woodland path. Two modest houses are visible in the background, partially obscured by the foliage, suggesting a quiet, remote setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoyreau, a French engraver, was known for his technical precision and his ability to translate the atmospheric qualities of paintings into the medium of print. His work often reflects the aesthetic preferences of the period, which favoured balanced compositions and a clear distinction between foreground, middle ground, and background. The use of fine lines and cross-hatching allows for a range of tonal values, from the deep shadows beneath the trees to the bright, cloud-filled sky above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print demonstrates a high degree of attention to natural detail, particularly in the rendering of the gnarled tree trunks and the varied textures of the forest floor. The inclusion of a small coat of arms at the bottom centre indicates that this print was likely part of a larger collection or commissioned work. The scene avoids dramatic action, focusing instead on the quiet observation of rural existence. This approach provides a window into the artistic conventions of the time, where the depiction of nature and everyday life was a common subject for printmakers. The work remains a clear example of the skill required to produce detailed, multi-layered engravings during the eighteenth century, maintaining a consistent focus on the interplay between light and shadow across the entire surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/de-schilder-door-liefde-pieter-tanje\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eDe schilder door liefde - Pieter Tanjé — Pieter Tanjé\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jean Moyreau","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491606696271,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491611808079,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58491611840847,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491611873615,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491611906383,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491611939151,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491611971919,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491612004687,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491612037455,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58491612070223,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58491612102991,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58491612135759,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Verschillende-figuren-in-een-bos-met-twee-huizen_Poster_CompositorV1_1786381849476.jpg?v=1786926776"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/collections\/jean-moyreau.oembed","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
