"Angelica and Medoro" is a 1763 painting by the French artist François Boucher, a leading painter of the Rococo era known for his idyllic and voluptuous paintings, decorative allegories, and pastoral scenes. The painting is inspired by the 16th-century Italian epic poem "Orlando Furioso" by Ludovico Ariosto, which narrates the romantic adventures of its characters in the context of the conflict between Christians and Saracens during the time of Charlemagne.

In the narrative of "Orlando Furioso," Angelica is a beautiful princess from Cathay who falls in love with the Saracen knight Medoro. Their love story is one of the secondary tales within the epic, providing a contrast to the madness and martial exploits of the titular character, Orlando. Boucher's depiction of the couple is emblematic of Rococo art, characterized by a focus on themes of love, the use of soft colors, and a light, decorative approach.

The painting portrays the lovers in a pastoral setting, a common trope in Rococo art, emphasizing the beauty and idyllic quality of their surroundings. Angelica is often shown in the act of inscribing her love for Medoro on a tree, a moment that captures the romantic and sentimental nature of their relationship. Boucher's work is notable for its refined elegance, sensuousness, and the use of delicate brushwork, which contribute to the overall feeling of enchantment and fantasy.

"Angelica and Medoro" reflects Boucher's skill in translating literary subjects into visual form, and his ability to capture the zeitgeist of 18th-century French aristocratic society, which delighted in such amorous and mythological themes. The painting is part of a larger body of work by Boucher that helped define the Rococo movement and influenced the course of European art in the period leading up to the Neoclassical revival.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of the collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
