Adriaen MANGLARD (Lyon, 1695; Roma, 1760)
|
French painter, draughtsman and engraver, active in Italy. The son of a modest painter and godson of Adriaen van der Cabel, he learnt figure painting with Frère Imbert in Lyon. He travelled to Rome in 1715, where he spent much of his time making studies of ships (Paris, Mus. A. Déc.) and even of Turks and camels (Paris, Ecole N. Sup. B.-A.). He also trained in the studio of Bernardino Fergioni (1674–1738) and learnt from those artists in the circle of the sculptor Pierre Legros, who was to purchase two seascapes by Manglard before 1719. His skill as a marine painter was such that his career advanced rapidly: prestigious clients included Victor Amadeus II, Duke of Savoy and King of Piedmont, who bought two matching pieces from him in 1726 (Turin, Gal. Sabauda), and Philip, Duke of Parma (d 1765), who acquired a pair in 1759 (Colorno, Pal. Ducale), and the Rospigliosi family in Rome, for whom he produced a number of pictures (Rome, Mus. N. Romano).
