“Nativity” by Jean-Baptiste Marie Pierre, 1714-1789. He was a talented painter, draughtsman and administrator in the latter days of the Kingdom of France, becoming Premier peintre du Roi in 1770 (until his death in 1789). Among his students was Etienne-Louis Boullée, the mystical visionary architect with the grandiose neoclassical designs.
