Louise Moillon

1610–1696 · Baroque

Louise Moillon was a French still life painter in the Baroque era. It is recorded that she became known as one of the best still life painters of her time, as her work was purchased by King Charles I of England, as well as French nobility. Moillon's works show the influence of Flemish painting in their trompe l'oeil effects but are characteristically French in their elegance. Moillon created about 40 paintings during her lifetime which are held in museums and private collections.
