Jean-Baptiste Oudry was a French Rococo painter, engraver and tapestry designer. He is particularly well known for his images of animals and his hunt pieces depicting game. Oudry was the son of Jacques Oudry, a painter and art dealer in Paris, and of his wife Nicole Papillon, who belonged to the family of the engraver Jean-Baptist-Michel Papillon. His father was a director of the "Académie de St-Luc" art school, which Oudry joined. Wikipedia
