Claude Vignon was a French Baroque painter, illustrator, and etcher and a member of the Guild of Artists of Paris.
Vignon was a versatile artist and worked in many different genres: he painted portraits, domestic scenes, and religious works. During a trip to Italy he studied, among other things, the work of Caravaggio, but in his art he mixed a variety of techniques and styles, from Mannerism to Venetian, Dutch and German art. His works are brightly colored, the lighting is gorgeous, and the characters are expressive.
Claude Vignon was also one of the most distinguished engravers and illustrators in 17th-century France.
