Jean Poyer

About this book

This book studies the works of a remarkable figure, scarcely known outside expert circles: Jean Poyer from the Loire Valley, the only one of Fouquet's disciples to have understood the full extent of his brilliant predecessor's achievements. This book is the first coherent examination of Poyer's oeuvre, which comprised manuscript illuminations, paintings, drawings, as well as designs for stained glas works, and whose compositions also found their way into Parisian printed graphic art.
