Louise-Magdeleine Horthemels, or Louise-Madeleine Hortemels, also called Magdeleine Horthemels (1686 – 2 October 1767), was a French engraver, the mother of Charles-Nicolas Cochin. She is also sometimes credited under her married name of Louise Madeleine Cochin or Madeleine Cochin. ==Life== The parish register of the parish of Saint-Benoit, Paris, shows that Louise-Magdeleine, baptized in 1686, was one of at least six children of Daniel Horthemels, a bookseller, and his wife Marie Cellier.〔 The Horthemels family had come from The Netherlands. Originally Protestants, they became followers of the Dutch Roman Catholic theologian Cornelis Jansen and had links with the Parisian abbey of Port-Royal-des-Champs, the centre of Jansenist thought in France.〔(Louise-Magdeleine Horthemels: Reproductive Engraver ) by Elizabeth Poulson in ''Woman's Art Journal'', vol. 6, no. 2 (Autumn, 1985 - Winter, 1986), pp. 20-23〕 Active as a copperplate engraver by 1707, on 10 August 1713 Horthemels married another engraver, Charles-Nicolas Cochin the Elder.〔 There were several more engravers in their extended family, including Cochin's brother Frédéric and the two sisters of Horthemels, Marie-Anne-Hyacinthe (1682–1727),〔 who was the wife of Nicolas-Henri Tardieu (1674–1749), an eminent engraver, a member of the Academy from 1720,〔(Les Forces Mouvantes ) at georgeglazer.com (accessed 11 February 2008)〕 and Marie-Nicole (b. 1689, died after 1745),〔 who was married to the portrait artist Alexis Simon Belle.〔(Alexis Simon Belle ) biography at getty.edu (accessed 14 February 2008)〕 Louise-Magdeleine Horthemels' son Charles-Nicolas Cochin the Younger became an engraver to the court of King Louis XV, a designer, writer, and art critic.〔(Charles-Nicolas Cochin, b. 1715 Paris, d. 1790 Paris, draftsman ), short biography at getty.edu (accessed 14 February 2008)〕 Horthemels died in Paris at her son's house on 2 October 1767. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louise-Magdeleine Horthemels」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
