“Felipe Diriksen came from a Flemish family of artists in service to the Spanish monarchy since the sixteenth century.”
According to the display:
“Trained in his native Belgium, Champaigne became a French citizen but he retained his connections with Flanders. Though much sought after as a portrait artist in French court circles, his career as a religious painter was equally important.”
According to the display:
“Several artists named Jean Michelin were recorded in Paris in the seventeenth century. All related and all Protestant, at least one of them fled religious persecution in France to settle at the Protestant court in Hanover.”
