Early 19th century oil painting on paper mounted on board.

Beautiful and very attractive neo classical erotic image .
In very good condition, retaining strong colours and fine detail. Nice period gilt frame.
Charles Meynier was a French painter of historical subjects in the late 18th and early 19th century. As a student of François-André Vincent, Meynier won the second prize in the 1789 prix de Rome competition. He became a member of the Académie de France à Rome. In 1793 he went back to Paris.
He made designs for the bas-reliefs and statues on the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel and the Paris Bourse. From 1816 onward, he was a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts. In 1819 Meynier was appointed teacher at the École des Beaux-Arts.
He has major works exhibited in the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Cleveland Museum of Art and the Palace of Versailles.
