Jean Nicolle

Place des Victoires, Paris, by Victor-Jean Nicolle

Jean Nicolle (19 July 1614 - 12 April 1650) was a French Norman painter and musician.[1]

Jean Nicolle was born in Louviers in 1614, the fourth child of Louis Nicolle and Marguerite Coyplet.[1] Both his father Louis and his uncle, Marin Nicolle, also painted. He discovered painting at a young age and showed an early talent, painting Saint Adrien, en costume Henri IV for the hospice in Louviers at age 10.[2] On 22 November 1639 he married Anne David (born 1617), with whom he had nine children.

He found a patron in Claude Baudry of Piencourt, the abbot in nearby La Croix-Saint-Leufroy.[2] Some of his paintings decorate the choir of Notre-Dame de Louviers, while others are at the City Museum.[3]
