A reclining nude woman with pale skin and golden hair sits at the center of the composition, her back turned as she looks over her shoulder toward a young man draped in a leopard skin. The young man, positioned just behind her, gazes intently at her face, his body half-hidden among lush foliage and clouds. Three winged putti cluster in the upper left, one reaching upward with a floral garland, while another gestures toward the couple below.

A fourth putto rests in the lower left foreground, its chubby arms entwined with a garland of pink roses, and its gaze directed outward. The figures are surrounded by a profusion of greenery and blooming roses, which frame the scene and create a sense of intimacy beneath the shelter of a large, arching tree. Soft clouds drift across the background, merging with a bright blue sky that opens up behind the tree canopy.

Light falls gently across the woman’s bare back and the putti’s limbs, highlighting their smooth, rounded forms and casting delicate shadows on the drapery and grass below. The lower right foreground is filled with rich folds of purple and green fabric, a red quiver, and a bow, their textures rendered with fluid, visible brushstrokes. François Boucher paints with a light, feathery touch, blending colors in soft transitions that give the scene a dreamlike atmosphere.

A thick tree trunk rises along the left edge, its bark rendered with deep green and brown tones that contrast with the delicate pink roses below. In the lower right corner, a rolled green velvet cushion lies partly under the purple drapery, with a golden tassel at its end catching the light. Soft blue and lavender shadows appear in the folds of the cloth, especially where the fabric gathers beneath the woman’s legs and feet.

The background transitions from dense, leafy branches in the upper left to a clear blue sky with wispy clouds in the upper right, creating a diagonal movement of color and light. Fine, curving lines define the contours of the putti’s wings and the edges of the floral garlands, while the paint is applied more loosely in the clouds and foliage. Angelica and Medoro was created by François Boucher in 1763. The museum lists the work as on view in gallery 539.
