ANSWER: Denis Diderot was one of the most famous 18th century critic of art. He wrote passionately about his love and thoroughly hated contemporary art. For him, Boucher's paintings were heartless, decadent, trivial, and morally worthless. In 1765, while viewing the works of François Boucher, Diderot wrote, “Depravity of morals has been closely followed by the debasement of taste, color, composition.”
THIS IS TRUE!!! hope this helped
The painter might have chose tempura, fresco, or oil over encaustic to make the painting have a more realistic effect to it.
