BiographyFrancois Boucher, born in 1703 in Paris, France, and died in 1770, is associated with paving the way for the late Rococo style. Boucher was imperative for this movement both in France and throughout Europe. With his diverse experimentation with media and art vocabularies, Boucher created an idiom of his own. Visiting Italy and influencing himself from the countryside and landscapes, he returned to Paris and achieved two important titles in the French art world.
