"Scene from the 'Master Andrew's Tomb'" is a notable artwork created around 1707 by the French painter and engraver Claude Gillot (1673–1722). This work is distinguished by its intricate depiction of a theatrical scene, showcasing Gillot's fascination with the commedia dell'arte, a form of theatre characterized by masked "types" which originated in Italy and became quite popular in France during the 17th and 18th centuries. Gillot, renowned for his contributions to the Rococo movement and for influencing later artists such as Antoine Watteau, demonstrates his adeptness in blending whimsical themes with a keen observation of human nature and society.

The painting captures an enigmatic and lively performance related to the fictional character "Master Andrew," possibly a reference to a stock character from the commedia dell'arte or a contemporary play. The artwork is imbued with a dynamic composition, vibrant colors, and a meticulous attention to detail, characteristics that are emblematic of Gillot's style. Through this scene, Gillot not only explores the theatricality and performative aspects of human social interaction but also delves into the cultural and artistic milieu of early 18th-century France, reflecting the period's growing interest in the theatrical arts, satire, and the exploration of human emotions and follies.

"Scene from the 'Master Andrew's Tomb'" is significant not only for its artistic merits but also for its historical context, offering insights into the cultural and social dynamics of the time. It stands as a testament to Claude Gillot's mastery in capturing the essence of the commedia dell'arte tradition and his pivotal role in the development of the Rococo movement, which emphasized the ornate, light-hearted, and often playful aspects of art and design. The painting remains an important piece for scholars and enthusiasts of French art history, particularly those interested in the interplay between visual arts and theatrical performance in the early modern period.
