Nattier, Jean-Marc
Jean-Marc Nattier (March 17, 1685 – November 7, 1766), French painter. Nattier aspired to be a history painter, but the French financial crisis of 1720 all but ruined him, and he was henceforth obliged to turn to portraiture, which was more lucrative. He subsequently revived the genre of the allegorical portrait, in which a living person is depicted as a Greco-Roman goddess or other mythological figure.
