Miss Pomp

Mixed media on velvet. Watteau was a painter from the Rococco period. It is linked to the Enlightenment as opposed to the rationalist, moralistic rigour of Classicism and drama of the Baroque, ending around 1760-1770. The themes of his art were simply change, transcience and the brevity of each moment, which make his work more important today with this relationship to historical context. Highly influenced by Rubens, it can be argued that his work could well have been more daring than Jeff Koons’ with his eclectic work such as ‘Puppy’ a huger sculptor with metal armature with its own irrigation system to water the surface made of flowers. There is the temporality issue in his work, which relates closely to the issues of superficiality in Postmodernism.
