VIGNON, Charlotte
(b. 1639, Paris)

Biography

French painter, daughter of Claude Vignon, one of France's most prominent painters in the 17th century. Still, little is known of her life. Born in Paris in 1639, she was the tenth of twenty-four children of Claude Vignon. Her oeuvre is comprised solely of still-lifes, owing much to the legacy of Italian artist Fede Galizia, a pioneer of the still-life genre.
