Claude Gillot

Claude Gillot (1673-1722) was a French painter, best known as the master of Watteau and Lancret. He was born at Langres. His sportive mythological landscape pieces, with such titles as "Feast of Pan" and "Feast of Bacchus", opened the Academy of Painting at Paris to him in 1715; and he then adapted his art to the fashionable tastes of the day, and introduced the decorative ftes champtres, in which he was afterwards surpassed by his pupils. He was also closely connected with the opera and theatre as a designer of scenery and costumes. Gillot, Claude Gillot, Claude Gillot, Claude
