"A Fête Champêtre" is an oil painting by the French artist Nicolas Lancret (1690–1743), a prominent painter of the Rococo era known for his depictions of the French aristocracy engaging in leisurely and pastoral activities. The term "fête champêtre" translates to "country festival" or "pastoral feast," and it refers to a genre of painting that portrays groups of elegantly dressed individuals enjoying outdoor entertainments in a natural or pastoral setting. Lancret's work in this genre captures the spirit of the time, reflecting the idyllic fantasies and playful amusements of the French elite.

Lancret was a student of Pierre Dulin and later Gillot, and he was heavily influenced by the works of Antoine Watteau, another master of the fête galante—a similar genre that often included elements of courtship. "A Fête Champêtre" exemplifies Lancret's skill in illustrating the carefree and romantic escapades of his subjects. The painting is characterized by its lively composition, delicate color palette, and the fluidity of its figures, which are often engaged in dance, conversation, or music-making.

While the exact date of creation for "A Fête Champêtre" is not definitively known, Lancret's most productive period was during the 1720s and 1730s, and it is likely that the painting originates from this era. The work is a testament to the cultural and social milieu of the Regency and early reign of Louis XV, where such scenes were not only popular subjects in art but also reflective of the actual pastimes of the aristocracy.

"A Fête Champêtre" by Nicolas Lancret remains an important piece within the oeuvre of 18th-century French painting, offering insight into the leisurely pursuits and aesthetic preferences of the period. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and as a cultural artifact of the Rococo movement. The painting is held in various art collections and has been displayed in museums around the world, contributing to the enduring legacy of Nicolas Lancret as a master of the fête champêtre genre.
