Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer[1] (12 January 1636 – 20 February 1699) was a Franco-Flemish painter who specialised in flower pieces. He was attached to the Gobelins tapestry workshops and the Beauvais tapestry workshops, too, where he produced cartoons of fruit and flowers for the tapestry-weavers, and at Beauvais was one of three painters[2] who collaborated to produce cartoons for the suite The Emperor of China.
- ^ His contemporaries simply called him Baptiste.
- ^ The other two were Jean Baptiste Blin (or Belin) de Fontenay, Monnoyer's son-in-law, and Guy Louis de Vernansal the Elder; Monnoyer's role in this particular case was apparently secondary.
