Lemme tell you about my favorite French artist whom I'd never heard of until I took a painting class.
Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin was born in 1699 during the later reign of Louis XIV, he of Versailles fame.
At the time, Hyacinth Regard paints like
and Chardin's contemporary Jean Honoré Fragonard is like
And another contemporary, François Boucher, is like
And Chardin is like
Fck👏this👏French👏Baroque👏Bullshit
and becomes the master of still life.
I appreciate them a lot more after seeing what he was rebelling against.
Also he did genre paintings of kitchen scenes and ordinary people
and he painted himself and his second wife all frumpy
and occasiomally he parodied Very Serious Art by substituting a monkey.
anyway that's my boy Chardin. Shitpainter of the French Royal Académie. He taught me glazing and i love him.
