Sweet Melancholy, 1756. Joseph-Marie Vien (French, 1716–1809).
The Cleveland Museum of Art.
Vien plays an important part in the the history of French art. In the mid 1740s, his encounter with Roman art newly unearthed from Herculaneum prompted him to move away from the decorative frivolity of Boucher to a more severe style - the beginning of a shift from rococo to neoclassicism. David was apprenticed to him and clearly influenced by this shift.
The head in hand pose for melancholy antedates this canvas by hundreds of years, but I like the linear elegance with which it is deployed by the artist. Other touches appeal to me too, such as the little still life on the table and the interwoven fabric and pearls of the headband.
