| Part of the aesthetic of what is not complete, sketches are a means of creation that is more free for the artist but it is also a means of training oneself, of copying the masters, of composing a work, of distributing colors. Over 100 sketches by Fragonard, Boucher, David, Hallé, Doyen, among others, allow to give the sketch technique all its space in the creation process. |
