French 1420-1479 Jean Fouquet Locations French painter and illuminator. He is regarded as the most important French painter of the 15th century and was responsible for introducing Italian Renaissance elements into French painting. Little is known of his life, and, apart from a signed self-portrait medallion (Paris, Louvre), his only authenticated work is the Antiquit?s judaeques (Paris, Bib. N., MS. fr. 247). A corpus of works by Fouquet has therefore been established on the basis of stylistic criteria, but its exact chronology is uncertain.  Related Paintings of Jean Fouquet :. | The taking of Jerusalem by Herod the Great, 36 BC | Portrait of Guillaume Jouvenel des Ursins | The Battle of Gilboa, by Jean Fouquet | Pompey in the Temple of Jerusalem, by Jean Fouquet | left wing of Melun diptych depicts Etienne Chevalier with his patron saint St. Stephen |
