"The Swing" (French: "L'escarpolette"), also known as "The Happy Accidents of the Swing" (French: "Les Hasards heureux de l'escarpolette"), is a renowned 18th-century oil painting by French artist Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732–1806). Completed in 1767, it is considered one of the quintessential works of the Rococo era, embodying the frivolity, eroticism, and buoyant spirit of the period. The painting is notable for its vibrant color palette, dynamic composition, and the intricate play of light and shadow.

The artwork depicts a young woman on a swing, being pushed by an older man who is likely unaware of the amorous intentions behind the scene. Hidden in the foliage, a young suitor watches the woman, who kicks off her shoe at him while allowing him a surreptitious glimpse under her skirt. The composition is rich with symbolic elements, such as the statues of Cupid and the pair of doves, which allude to the themes of love and infidelity.

Fragonard's masterful brushwork and the painting's engaging narrative have made "The Swing" an iconic image of Rococo art. The painting's original patron was the Baron de Saint-Julien, who requested a canvas depicting his mistress on a swing pushed by a bishop. However, Fragonard chose to replace the cleric with a layman, possibly to avoid scandal. The painting currently resides in the Wallace Collection in London, where it continues to captivate audiences with its playful and sensuous depiction of an 18th-century garden rendezvous.
