Antoine Pesne

Antoine Pesne was a French and German painter of the first half of the 18th century. He is known as a painter, portraitist and is considered one of the most important representatives of the Friderician Rococo.

Pesne was court painter to three Prussian kings and director of the Prussian Academy of Arts and Mechanical Sciences. Beginning in the Baroque style, he later became one of the fathers of Rococo painting, combining the French school with this style. His decorative works, including mythological and allegorical scenes, adorned buildings in Rheinsberg, Berlin, and Potsdam. Pesne contributed to the spread of French influence on art in the capitals of Europe.
