In the French painting of the XVIII century, the theme of "Diana and Endimión" occupied a prominent place within the renewed interest for the classic mythology. In a century marked by courtly refinement, gallant aesthetics and the rise of Rococo, mythological tales allowed artists to explore the ideal of beauty, veiled sensuality and natural harmony. The story of the hunting goddess in love with the young sleeping shepherd offered just such a balance between grace, sentiment and symbolism.
