This article is about rococo realisation of the motif of old age in one of the idyll, written by Franciszek
Zabłocki (1752–1821), which appeared in print in the volume “Zabawy Przyjemne i Pożyteczne” at the
beginning of April 1775. The analysed work, en titled Chloe and Likas, is about an old man who makes
advances to young and beautiful girl and he must compete with younger rival. This idyll is based on
dialogue, in which main characters deliberate on relationships between love and age, rule of the human
life and attributes of old age and youth. I will analyse the way of writing about old age and youth and
perceiving this two stages in of life by the Enlightenment poet.
