"An Autumn Pastoral" (1749) is an oil painting by the French artist François Boucher, a leading painter of the Rococo period known for his idyllic and voluptuous paintings, decorative allegories, and pastoral scenes. This work is part of a series of four paintings representing the seasons, a popular subject in the decorative arts of the 18th century, which allowed artists to explore various human activities and landscapes associated with different times of the year.

In "An Autumn Pastoral," Boucher depicts a romanticized vision of the countryside during the harvest season. The painting is characterized by its soft, warm tones and the use of light to enhance the sensuous forms and textures within the scene. It typically features figures engaged in or resting from agricultural labor, surrounded by the abundance of the harvest, which serves as a metaphor for fertility and the earth's bounty.

The composition of "An Autumn Pastoral" is carefully constructed to lead the viewer's eye through the scene, with a balance between human figures, animals, and the natural environment. Boucher's skill in rendering textures—such as the softness of skin, the roughness of tree bark, and the lushness of foliage—is evident and contributes to the overall sense of harmony and pleasure.

As with many of Boucher's works, "An Autumn Pastoral" reflects the Rococo taste for escapism and the idealization of rural life, a theme that resonated with the aristocratic patrons of the time who were keen on imagining a simpler life away from the complexities of the court. The painting is also an example of the artist's ability to convey a narrative through the interaction of figures and the landscape, inviting viewers to contemplate the pastoral lifestyle.

"An Autumn Pastoral" is held in high regard for its aesthetic qualities and as an example of Boucher's contribution to the Rococo movement. It remains an important work for understanding the cultural and artistic values of 18th-century France, as well as the broader European tradition of pastoral painting. The painting is part of a collection in a notable museum or private collection, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its historical significance and artistic merit.
