Why this artist matters now
Jean Mignon was a French artist in painting and printmaking in the 16th century, active from 1537 to the mid-1550s. He worked in etching, sometimes supplemented by engraving, and was one of the first group of artists in France to use etching for prints. He was part of the burst of activity in the 1540s associated with the First School of Fontainebleau.
