Toussaint Dubreuil

Author(s): Dominique  Cordellier

€ 20.00 tax included

This book accompanies the first exhibition devoted to Toussaint Dubreuil, First Painter to King Henri IV, as well as consummate lutenist and passionate horseman.

Trained at Fontainebleau, Dubreuil mastered all of the significant innovations of the Mannerists in Italy (Michelangelo, Tibaldi, Passerotti) and France (Primaticcio, Nicolò dell'Abate, Antoine Caron) and achieved recognition as the uncontested master of the Second School of Fontainebleau. He found a new, eloquently clear style which in France paved the way for the Classicism of La Hyre, Vouet, and Poussin.
