Description
Time Vanquished by Love, Venus and Hope by Simon Vouet
Simon Vouet (French: 9 January 1590-30 June 1649) was a French painter and draftsman, who today is perhaps best remembered for helping to introduce the Italian Baroque style of painting to France.
Simon Vouet was born on January 9, 1590 in Paris. His father Laurent was a painter in Paris and taught him the rudiments of art. Simon's brother Aubin Vouet (1595-1641) and his grandson Ludovico Dorigny (1654-1742) were also painters. Simon began his painting career as a portrait painter. At a young age, he traveled to England and was part of the entourage of the Baron de Sancy, French ambassador to Constantinople. From there he went to Venice and was in Rome in 1614
