A rare vintage serigraphy picture of ‘The Young Scholar’ by Francois Hubert Drouais (1727 - 1775). A reproduction image of the 18th Century oil painting, framed in an ornate brass frame. In good vintage condition with some tarnishing to the frame and cracks in the serigraphy appropriate for its vintage age. 
 
Drouais was the successor to Nattier as the chief portrait painter at the court of Louis XV. He portrayed most of the leading figures of his age, including the king and his two most famous mistresses, Madame de Pompadour and Madame du Barry, as well as artists and leading members of the professional classes. Drouais was celebrated for his likenesses of aristocrats dressed in rustic costume, a current fashion, and for his representations of children, often in landscape settings.
