17,000 Articles from the Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th & 12th eds. Charles-André Vanloo (1705–1765) [or Charles Andrew van Loo].  Subject painter, a younger brother of Jean-Baptiste Vanloo; born at Nice on the 15th of February 1705. He received some instruction from his brother, and like him studied in Rome under Luti. Leaving Italy in 1723, he worked in Paris, where he gained the first prize for historical painting. After again visiting Italy in 1727, he was employed by the king of Sardinia, for whom he painted a series of subjects illustrative of Tasso. In 1734 he settled in Paris, and in 1735 became a member of the French Academy; and he was decorated with the order of St. Michael and appointed principal painter to the king. By his simplicity of style and correctness of design, the result of his study of the great Italian masters, he did much to purify the modern French school; but the contemporary praise that was lavished upon his productions now appears undue and excessive. His “Marriage of the Virgin” is preserved in the Louvre. He died at Paris on the 15th of July 1765. © 2022 WEHD.com
