жан-батист малле (1759 - 1835)
Jean-Baptiste Mallet was a French painter in the Troubadour style.
His style shows the strong influence of Jean-Baptiste Greuze, Jean-Honoré Fragonard (also from Grasse) and Louis Léopold Boilly. He is also known to have studied 17th-century Dutch painting.
Most of his works were gouaches and watercolors, done in relatively small formats, and consist largely of genre scenes depicting life under the Directorate and the First Empire.
His paintings were very popular and are an indispensable source of information about interior decorations and furnishings of the period. Most of his works were also available as prints.
Outside of France, his works may be seen at the National Gallery of Art and LACMA.
