Biography:
Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin was born in Paris. Although he initially intended to follow in the footsteps of his carpenter father, Chardin began to study under Pierre Cazes and Nicolas Coypel. He also learned to paint by copying Dutch and Flemish paintings, encouraging him to create primarily still-lifes. Despite the small demand for this style of painting at the time, Chardin career developed and in 1728, he became a full member of the Academy in Paris. As a result of financial hardships, Chardin began to paint small scenes of domestic life, which were very popular amongst the public later in his career.
