Who was Claude-Jean-Baptiste Hoin?
Claude-Jean-Baptiste Hoin was a French artist known primarily for his portraits and landscapes. He worked in pastels for his portrait miniatures, and in gouache and engraving for his landscapes. He studied with François Devosge and Jean-Baptiste Greuze. He was a member of the Academy of the Sciences and Literature of Dijon and an honorary associate of the Royal Academy of Painting of Toulouse. His works include a self-portrait in pastel, and the portraits Mirabeau, Guyard, Madame Dugazon, and Rosalie Duthé.
