school; landscape
painter,
pupil of Joost
de Momper
and of Velvet
Brueghel, and
perhaps also of Rubens, for whom he painted
backgrounds; master of the guild at Antwerp
in 1614. Invited by the Elector Palatine
Frederick V., he went about 1616 or
1618 to Heidelberg to decorate the castle,
and in 1621 to Paris, where his art found
much favour in the eyes of Louis XIII., who
employed him to paint views of the chief
French cities. Jealous of the favour shown
to this painter, Poussin left France. Afterwards
Fouquières fell into disgrace, and died
in great misery. He was the master of Philippe
de Champaigne. Works: Stag Hunt,
