Painting Description
"Au Moins Soyez Discret; And Comptez Sur Mes Sermens" is a pair of engravings by the French artist Augustin de Saint-Aubin, created in the 18th century. Augustin de Saint-Aubin, born in 1736 and deceased in 1807, was part of the Saint-Aubin family, a dynasty of artists and designers. He was known for his delicate and detailed engravings, which often depicted scenes of contemporary French society with a particular focus on the fashions and manners of the time.
The titles of these works, "Au Moins Soyez Discret" (At Least Be Discreet) and "Comptez Sur Mes Sermens" (Count on My Oaths), suggest themes of secrecy and promise, which were common in the sentimental and often morally instructive literature and art of the period. These engravings likely portray moments of intimate conversation or declarations of love, reflecting the social and romantic intrigues that were popular subjects in the art and literature of the Rococo era.
Saint-Aubin's work is characterized by its fine lines and attention to detail, qualities that are evident in these engravings. His ability to capture the nuances of fabric, gesture, and expression made his works sought after for their illustrative quality and their insight into the mores of French society.
The engravings are representative of the Rococo style, which was prevalent in France during the time Saint-Aubin was active. This style emphasized ornate decoration, lightness, and elegance, often focusing on themes of love, nature, and playful mischief. As a member of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, Saint-Aubin was an established figure in the French art world, and his works contributed to the visual culture of his time.
"Au Moins Soyez Discret; And Comptez Sur Mes Sermens" would have been consumed by the art patrons and the literate public of the period, who would appreciate both their aesthetic qualities and the social commentary they provided. Today, these engravings not only serve as examples of Saint-Aubin's artistic skill but also offer historical insight into the social dynamics and fashions of 18th-century France.
