French painter. Born and died in Paris. He initially aspired to be a history painter and aimed to win the Prix de Rome, but failed. He began working in Claude Giraud's studio around 1712-13, and inherited from Giraud his interest in performing arts, including the Commedia dell'arte, and genre painting. In 1719, he became an Academician one year after Watteau, as a painter of "Fate Galantes". He spent most of his time in Paris, producing works in a style that followed Watteau's, and although his figures do not have the high spirituality of Watteau's sadness, he conveys the atmosphere of the era more directly. His representative works include "Symposium" (1735, Chantilly, Musee Condé) and the series "The Four Seasons" (c. 1738, Louvre). Lancret's paintings were reproduced in large quantities by copperplate engraving from the end of the 1720s, and his fame increased. He also left behind many colored chalk drawings.

フランスの画家。パリに生まれ、同地に没。最初歴史画家を志し、ローマ賞を目ざすが果たせず、1712~13年ごろクロード・ジローの工房で働き始め、彼からコメディア・デラルテをはじめとする舞台芸術、そして風俗画への関心を受け継ぐ。19年「フェート・ギャラント(雅画)」の画家として、ワトーに1年遅れてアカデミー会員となる。ほとんどパリにあって、ワトーに追随した画風の作品を制作、人物像にワトーの哀感を帯びた高い精神性は感じられないとはいえ、時代の雰囲気をより直截(ちょくせつ)に伝えている。代表作に『饗宴(きょうえん)』(1735、シャンティイ、コンデ美術館)、『四季』連作(1738ころ、ルーブル美術館)などがある。ランクレの絵画作品は1720年代の終わりから銅版画によって大量に複製され、名声が高まった。また色チョークによる素描も多く残している。 [上村清雄] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
