KÜNSTLER: Francois Boucher
Gemälde: Adoration of the Shepherds

He expressed no glorious promises about heaven: either as an Olympian refuge for aristocratic families, or in ordinary Christian terms. Like most French eighteenth-century painters, he could not evolve a satisfactory idiom for religious pictures of any kind; and he was particularly unsuited to the task by the nature of his real abilities. The picture shows one of his rare paintings of religious subject
