Info about artwork:
Agrasot once again returns to “art for art's sake,” and “to the painting within the painting.” The model that this 18th century artist is painting is distantly related to the nude that Agrasot made in a free version of Velázquez's Venus. A painter at work in the workshop (the model is not visible), and the different successive plans of the room representing paintings, cupboards and ceramics are a demonstration of the perfect knowledge of perspective in interiors.
