Angel Thiên Thần Nhỏ...tí ;-) Registered: May 2004 Location: Thiên Đàng Posts: 14,087	Born in Paris, the son of a lace designer Nicolas Boucher, Francois Boucher was perhaps the most celebrated decorative artist of the 18th century, with most of his work reflecting the Rococo style. At the young age of 17, Boucher was apprenticed by his father to Francois Lemoyne, however after only 3 months he went to work for the engraver Jean-Francois Cars. Within 3 years Boucher had already won the elite Grand Prix de Rome, although he did not take up the consequential opportunity to study in Italy until 4 years later. On his return from studying in Italy in 1731, he was admitted to the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture as a historical painter, and became a faculty member in 1734. His career accelerated from this point, as he advanced from professor to Rector of the Academy, becoming head of the Royal Gobelin factory in 1755 and finally Premier Peintre du Roi (First Painter of the King) in 1765.
