Nicolas Lancret was born at Paris in 1690, and was successively the scholar of Claude Gillot and Antony Watteau. Under the latter he made an extraordinary progress and so well imitated the style and manner of his master, that some of his works are frequently taken for the genuine paintings of Watteau. But though it cannot be truly said that he arrived at the excellence of his master either in the spirit and delicacy of design or in the beauty of his colouring and handling, yet his paintings are lively and agreeable. he finished a great number of pictures, all exhibiting great truth and nature, good composition and execution, groups of figures well disposed and agreeably turned, and the whole handled with light pencil. He was a member of the Academy of Paris and died there in 1743.
