François Hutin

François Hutin (1686 – August 1758) was a French painter, sculptor and engraver.

He studied under Bon Boullogne, and as a student submitted his work in the competitions of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in 1709 and 1710.

This matrimonial tie made Hutin a member of a renowned artistic clan, much like the famous families of Coypel and Roëttiers.

[2] They had three sons, all of whom later became artists: Charles,[3] Pierre-Jules, who worked in Dresden, and Jean-Baptiste.

He was entrusted with decorations for the Chinea festival, a yearly tribute offered to the Pope as ultimate sovereign of Naples.
