Antoine Watteau, The Lesson of Love (1716)


Por sugestão de Philip Sandblom, Creativity and Disease (Marion Boyars, 1996), onde se pode ler:
"In the history of creative work, there are many who, like Molière and Watteau, had their efforts influenced and their lives shortened by tuberculosis. One has the impression that this disease often exerted a singular effect on their talent. The slight fever livened the associations and filled the thoughts with fantastic, dreamlike pictures." (p.168)
