This oil on canvas painting, created by jean-honore' fragonard in 1767, depicts a young man secretly watching a woman on a swing, who is unaware of his presence. The elderly man pushing the swing is almost hidden in the shadows. The lady lets the young man peek under her dress and flick her shoe towards cupid, all while turning her back to two cherubs. The painting's irony lies in the woman's bergère hat, as shepherds are typically associated with virtue. The swing became a target for enlightenment philosophers, who preferred a more serious art form. There are several copies of this painting, none by fragonard.
