A student of Boucher and Le Moyne, Schalle was one of the most appreciated painters of his time and enjoyed immense success throughout Europe. His architectural drawings in the style of Piranesi contributed to his appointment in 1764 as designer of the king's chamber and cabinet, a position for which he produced numerous ephemeral architectures for royal festivals and great funerals. He played an essential role in the transition between the rococo or rocaille and classical styles and was one of the essential contributors to the creation of the aesthetic known as the Louis XVI style.
