Jean François Félibien : ウィキペディア英語版
André Félibien
André Félibien (May 1619 – 11 June 1695), ''sieur des Avaux et de Javercy'', was a French chronicler of the arts and official court historian to Louis XIV of France.〔He is sometimes credited with being an architect, but no architectural training and no built structures can be ascribed to him.〕
==Biography==

Félibien was born at Chartres. At the age of fourteen he went to Paris to continue his studies; and in May 1647 he was sent to Rome in the capacity of secretary in the embassy of the marquis de Fontenay-Mareuil. His residence at Rome he turned to good account by diligent study of its ancient monuments, by examination of the literary treasures of its libraries, and by cultivating the acquaintance of men eminent in literature and in art, with whom he was brought into contact through his translation of Francesco Cardinal Barberini's ''Life of Pius V''. Among his friends was Nicolas Poussin, whose counsels were of great value to him, and under whose guidance he even attempted to paint〔Preface to the ''Entretiens''.〕 and whose biography Félibien wrote,〔''Vie de Nicolas Poussin'' was published as the eighth of the ''Entretiens'', (Paris 1688). The Sieur de Chantelou provided him with essential source material. Félibien's sojourn in Rome is the subject of an essay by Y. Delaporte, "André Félibien en Italie," ''Gazette des Beaux-Arts'' 51.100 (1958:193ff.〕 which remains "the most persuasive guide to the work, as to the life" of Poussin, as the biography's modern editor Claire Pace observed.〔Claire Pace, ''Félibien's Life of Poussin'' (London: Zwemmer 1981).〕
On his return to France he immediately began working up his notes for the eight volumes of ''Entretiens'' he eventually published. He married and was ultimately induced, in the hope of employment and honors, to settle in Paris. Both Fouquet and Colbert in their turn recognized his abilities; he was one of the first members (1663) of the Academy of Inscriptions. Three years later Colbert procured him the appointment of court historian to the king, in which one of his commissions was the minute descriptions of court fêtes, an essential element of the king's cultural propaganda.〔Charles Perrault wrote the account of the fête of 1664; Félibien those of 1668 and 1674; they were reissued in glamorous folios with engravings by Jean Le Pautre (Barbara Coeyman, "Social Dance in the 1668 Feste de Versailles: Architecture and Performance Context" ''Early Music'' 26.2 (May 1998:264-85) p. 269).〕 In 1671 he was named secretary to the newly founded Académie d'architecture, where he gave lectures, and in 1673 he was appointed keeper of the cabinet of antiquities in the Palais Brion. His ''Description sommaire'' (1674) was the official guide to Versailles. To these offices was afterwards added by Louvois that of deputy controller-general of roads and bridges.
Félibien found time in the midst of his official duties for study and research, and produced many literary works. Among these the best and the most generally known is the ''Entretiens sur les vies et sur les ouvrages des plus excellents peintres anciens et modernes'',〔"Discussions concerning the lives and works of the most excellents painters, ancient and modern" Paris, 1666, fifth ed. 1688; it was republished with several additions at Amsterdam in 1706, and again at Trévoux in 1725.〕 which set the nascent discipline of art criticism on sound logical footings, which Félibien set forth most coherently in his ''Principes de l'architecture, de la sculpture, de la peinture, &c.'' (1676-1690).
Félibien wrote also ''L'Origine de la peinture'' (1660), and descriptions of Versailles, of La Trappe Abbey, and of the pictures and statues of the royal residences.〔''Tableaux du Cabinet du Roy, Statues et bustes antiques des Maisons royales'' (Paris: Imprimerie Royale, 1677).〕 He published a straightt-forward work of information, ''Des principes de l'architecture, de la sculpture, de la peinture... avec un dictionnaire des terms'' anonymously in Paris, 1676; in it H. W. van Helsdingen has detected that he made use of an unpublished work of critical ''Observations'' by Charles Alphonse du Fresnoy.〔Later editions bore his name (van Helsdingen 1970:109ff).〕 Among other literary works, he edited the published Conferences of the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture and translated the ''Castle of the Soul'' from the Spanish of St. Theresa. His personal character commanded the highest esteem, agreeing with the motto which he adopted - ''Bene facere et vera dicere'', "Do well, and tell the truth". Félibien's codification of the aesthetic values of the classic arts in the hierarchy of genres〔Vernon Hyde Minor, ''Baroque & Rococo: Art & Culture.'' (New York: Abrams) 1999., pp 209-210.〕 is perhaps his most enduring legacy. André Félibien and Roger de Piles, author of ''Dialogue sur les coloris'' (Paris, 1673) "were and are the best-known writers on fine arts in seventeenth-century France".〔With these words H. W. van Helsdingen begins his "Remarks on a Text Borrowed by Félibien" ''Simiolus: Netherlands Quarterly for the History of Art'' 4.2 (1970:109-114) p 109.〕 He died in Paris in 1695.
His son, Jean François Félibien (c. 1658-1733), was also an architect who left a number of works on his subject; and a younger son, Michel Félibien (c. 1666-1719), was a Benedictine monk of Saint-Germain-des-Prés whose fame rests on his history of the Abbey of Saint-Denis〔''Histoire de labbaye royale de S. Denys en France''〕 and also his ''L'Histoire de l'école de Paris'' in 5 vols., a work indispensable to the student of Paris.
Félibien's diaries are among the bound volumes of his papers conserved in the public library of his birthplace, Chartres. The only recent work wholly devoted to Félibien is Stefan Germer, ''Kunst, Macht, Diskurs. Die intellektuelle Karriere des André Félibien im Frankreich von Louis XIV'' (Munich), 1997; it supplants the brief report in A. Fontaine, ''Les doctrines d'art en France'' (Paris) 1909:41ff.
