Artist
Simon Floquet
b. 1615
Simon Floquet is a French Classical Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum. Simon Floquet was born in Ghent.
Simon Floquet painted grand, dreamy scenes in the Flemish style—think gold-leaf robes, cloudy skies, and gifts raining down. He left us *The Goddess Fortuna Bestowing her Gifts*, a 1650 oil painting where luck spills from a cornucopia like coins and stars. If you like golden light and heavenly drama, tap the painting to zoom in and see how he layered the gold leaf to catch the light.
