Jouvenet (John), a celebrated French painter, was born at Rouen in 1644; where his father, who was a painter, bred him up to the same profession; but his greatest improvement was confessedly derived from the instructions of Nicholas Poussin, and studying the works of that master. He acquired so good a knowledge of design, as qualified him for employment in several grand works in the palaces at Paris and Trianon; in many of the churches and convents; and in the hospital of invalids, where he painted the twelve apostles, each figure being 14 feet high. He was esteemed to have a ready invention, to be correct in his designs, and to have a taste for grandeur in his compositions: it is observed of this artist, that being deprived of the use of his right hand by a paralytic disorder, he nevertheless continued to paint with his left. He died in the year 1717.
