"Vertumnus and Pomona" is an 18th-century oil painting by the French artist François Boucher, a leading proponent of the Rococo style known for his idyllic and voluptuous paintings, decorative allegories, and pastoral scenes. The painting is based on the Roman myth of Vertumnus, the god of seasons, plant growth, and gardens, and Pomona, the goddess of fruit trees, gardens, and orchards. In the myth, Vertumnus falls in love with Pomona and, after many attempts, wins her affection by disguising himself as an old woman and gaining her trust.

Boucher's interpretation of "Vertumnus and Pomona" is emblematic of the Rococo era, characterized by its use of soft colors, fluid lines, and a light-hearted, romanticized approach to classical themes. The painting typically features the moment of revelation where Vertumnus, in disguise, is courting Pomona, who is often depicted surrounded by the attributes of her domain, such as fruits and flowers. The work is imbued with a sense of intimacy and charm, reflecting the frivolity and sensuousness of the Rococo movement.

The exact date of creation for Boucher's "Vertumnus and Pomona" is not universally agreed upon, but it is generally attributed to the mid-18th century, a period during which Boucher received significant royal patronage, including from Madame de Pompadour, the mistress of King Louis XV. The painting is notable for its exquisite detail, harmonious composition, and the delicate portrayal of the figures, which exemplify Boucher's skill in capturing the textures of fabrics and the softness of flesh.

"Vertumnus and Pomona" by François Boucher is not only a representation of a mythological narrative but also an expression of the cultural and artistic values of the time. It reflects the aristocratic taste for leisure, love, and beauty, and stands as a testament to Boucher's mastery in translating these themes into visual art. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is considered an important work within Boucher's oeuvre, contributing to our understanding of the Rococo period and its aesthetics.
