It’s tough to beat the art of Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806; above: his “The Beloved Child”). Fragonard’s dreamy, idyllic paintings are still popular with White people over 200 years later. (Trivia: most of Fragonard’s well-to-do clients were executed on the guillotine during the French Revolution, which no doubt bankrupted him).
