About

A very special publication marking the exhibition 'Watteau, the music lesson' at the Palais des Beaux-Arts [Bozar] in Brussels. Commissioned by musician and conductor William Christie and contemporary artist Michaël Borremans, the exhibition highlights the multifaceted, often timeless, the work of Watteau. This CD-Book celebrates the art of Watteau with numerous musical and pictorial examples.

One of the most famous and influential artists of the 18th century, Jean-Antoine Watteau (c. 1684–1721) fundamentally changed the course of French painting. With masterpieces such as 'Les charmes de la vie', 'Lady at her Toilet' and 'Les Champs Élisées', the Wallace Collection in London preserves one of the three outstanding collections of his paintings worldwide (together with Paris and Berlin).
