Born in 1753, Descourtis was a prominent figure in the world of French art, particularly celebrated for his mastery in the technique of aquatint, a method that allows for the creation of images with rich tonal variations and subtle gradations of color. This particular work, L'armant Surpris, exemplifies his skill in capturing the delicate interplay of light and shadow, as well as his ability to convey intricate details and textures.

The scene depicted in L'armant Surpris is a quintessential representation of the Rococo style, characterized by its playful and romantic themes, as well as its emphasis on elegance and refinement.
