Claude Gillot
French, 1673-1722

Claude Gillot’s four-etching series of riotous woodland bacchanals celebrates Bacchus, Pan, fauns, and the nymph Diana (see 1969.279–80 and 1969.282). As stylistic precursors to the French Rococo with a deep interest in theater, Gillot’s prints are satirical and revolve around ancient sculpture.
