Adam-François Van der Meulen 1632/1690
baptized on January 11, 1632 in Brussels and died on October 15, 1690 in Paris, is a Flemish Baroque painter of Brussels origin. In 1646, he was a student in Brussels of Peeter Snayers, then part of the Antwerp school, before entering the service of the Spanish archdukes. Mastering the art of representing horses and landscapes, his fame crossed borders and in 1662, he was called to Paris by Charles Le Brun, first painter of King Louis XIV and director of the Manufacture des Gobelins.
Specializing in battle and hunting paintings, he came to strengthen in 1665, the team responsible for immortalizing the image of the king and was pensioned in 1667.
He accompanied Louis XIV on all his travels, in all his residences, and in all his wars. He also produced numerous cartoons for the Gobelins factory.
