Noël-Nicolas Coypel (1690 – 1734)
Noël-Nicolas Coypel was a popular French artist from Paris, he was the son of painter, Noël Coypel (1628 – 1707) and half-brother to the more famous, Antoine Coypel. In 1716, Noël-Nicolas Coypel was accredited to the Academie Royale and in 1733, he was given a professorship there, but unfortunately, he died the following year in a domestic accident. Noël-Nicolas studied ancient figures in meticulous detail which allowed him to paint his subjects with precision and charm. He was considered to be the most gifted artist in his family and yet, he was the least famous, it seems likely that this was down to his rather demure personality.
