The Huguenots and Art, C. 1560–1685*
chapter 7 The Huguenots and Art, c. 1560–1685* Andrew Spicer 1 Introduction At an extraordinary meeting of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in Paris on 10 October 1681, the president Charles Le Brun read a command from the king’s minister Jean-Baptiste Colbert. On the orders of Louis xiv, those who were members of the Religion Prétendue Reformée were to be deprived of their positions within the Academy; their places were to be taken by Catholics, and membership in the future was to be restricted to this confes- sion. The measure particularly targeted seven men: Henri Testelin (1616–95), Secretary of the Academy; Jean Michelin (1623–96), Assistant Professor; Louis Ferdinand Elle, père (1612–89), Samuel Bernard (1615–87), Jacques Rousseau (1630–93), council members; Mathieu Espagnandel (1616–89) and Louis Ferdinand Elle fils (1648–1717), academicians. The secretary, Testelin, who had painted several portraits of the young king during the 1660s, acquiesced to the royal order but requested that the Academy recognize that he was deprived of his position not due to any personal failings concerning his honesty and good conduct. The academicians acknowledged this to be the case and similarly noted that the other Huguenots present—Bernard, Ferdinand Elle and Michelin—had acquitted their charge with probity and to the satisfaction of the company.1 The following January, the names of Jacob d’Agard and Nicolas Eude were struck from the Academy’s registers because they had both sought refuge in England.2 The expulsion of these artists and sculptors from this learned society was part of the increasing personal and religious restrictions imposed on the Huguenots by Louis xiv, which culminated in the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in October 1685. -
