Nicolas Henri Joseph de Fassin

Nicolas Henri Joseph de Fassin (20 April 1728 – 21 January 1811) was a landscape painter from Liège in the Southern Netherlands.

Early in life he served in the French army, and it was not until he was thirty-four years of age that he commenced the study of art in the Academy at Antwerp.

He painted a landscape for Catherine the Great, for which he was handsomely rewarded, and many others are to be found at Liège, and in Germany and England.

His biography, with a list of his pictures, was published by Félix Alexandre Joseph Van Hulst in 1837.
