Short Description: "Pierre Brébiette (1598 ? - 1642) was a French painter. Several of his drawings have been preserved, but so far only one of his signed paintings has been identified. That work, an oil on canvas entitled The Rape of Proserpina by Pluto, is now in the Picot collection within the collections of the Musée des Beaux-Arts et d'Archéologie de Châlons-en-Champagne.

Paola Bassani Pacht, who published an exhibition catalogue on Pierre Brébiette together with Sylvain Kerspern for the Musée des Beaux Arts d'Orleans in 2001 , has recently identified a large Neptune Calmant la Tempête as being Brébiette's. This oil on canvas, size 111.7 x 148 cm, was formerly at the Galerie Alexis Bordes in Paris, and is now in a private Paris collection . The painting was discovered by Gui Rochat as French 18th century in Christie’s South Kensington April 13, 2011, lot 178." - (en.wikipedia.org 28.12.2020)
