Print is part of an album., printmaker: Antoine Aveline, after design by François-Thomas Mondon, publisher: Étienne Charpentier, Paris, grantor of privilege: Louis XV of France, France, 1736, Louis mm, rocaille ornament, fishes, nymphs (in general), 'Ninfe in commune' (Ripa), A detailed pen-and-ink scene shows ornate swirling waves and stylized sea foam forming intricate curls and scalloped shapes, interwoven with large shells and a tentacle-like form with suction details. Two partially visible human figures emerge from the waves with bare shoulders and heads turned toward each other, their hair rendered in delicate lines. A large fish head with an open mouth and bulging eye appears among the carved wave forms. Tall, curved leaves and plant-like fronds rise behind the central sea motifs, and a decorative urn or vase with fluted body and finial rests among the foliage. Fine linear shading and crosshatching cover the composition, and a column of water cascades down from one of the wave formations into a darker textured base at the bottom.
