Antoine Watteau, the master of the Rococo, shook the art world with his delicate touch and captivating scenes.

Born in 1684, Watteau's early life was marked by his father's textile business and his own passion for art.

He became an apprentice to Claude Gillot, where he learned the art of creating theatrical scenery and developed his unique style.

Watteau's career took off in 1717, when he was admitted to the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture with his painting Peregrination to the Island of Cythera.

Despite his success, Watteau struggled with tuberculosis and died in 1721 at the age of 36, leaving behind a legacy that would shape the Rococo movement.
