      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Jean François de Troy was a French roccoco painter and tapestry designer. He was one of a family of painters, being the son of the portrait painter François de Troy (1645-1730), under whom he first studied, and at whose expense he went to Italy 1699-1706, staying in Rome, but also visiting many north Italian cities.</p>

      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Jean François de Troy was born on January 27, 1679 in Paris. The successful career of Jean François de Troy was based initially on large historical and allegorical compositions, such as Time Unveiling Truth (1733) in the National Gallery, London, but he is now most highly regarded for his smaller and more spirited scenes of elegant social life. They are among the best of those that rode on the wave of Watteau’s success—indeed The Alarm, or the Gouvernante Fidèle (Victoria and Albert Museum, London, 1723) was attributed to Watteau in the 19th century. A versatile artist, he made tableaux de modes famous, painting histories and mythologies in a colorful and fluent manner which owed something to both Veronese and Peter Paul Rubens.</p>

      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">He undertook commissions for Versailles and Fontainebleau between 1724 and 1737, and designed two sets of tapestries for the Gobelins, each of seven subjects, the Histoire d’Esther (1737-40) and the Histoire de Jason (1743-6).</p>

      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In 1738 he was appointed Director of the French Academy in Rome, and spent the rest of his life there. De Troy’s wife died prematurely, and he lost of all his seven children. Jean François de Troy died on January 26, 1752 in Rome.</p>
