Jean Baptiste Ferdinand Monchablon, known as Jan Monchablon (6 September 1854, Châtillon-sur-Saône - 2 October 1904, Châtillon-sur-Saône) was a French landscape painter.

Biography

His father was an official with the local health department. He began his education at the Collège Notre-Dame in Nantes. In 1875, after working as a private tutor, he became a Professor in Quimper. Six years later, he entered the École des Beaux-Arts, where he studied under Jean-Paul Laurens.[1] From 1883 to 1884, he took further lessons in the studio of Alexandre Cabanel. Finding himself attracted to the works of the Flemish masters, he took a study trip to the Netherlands in 1886. It was at that time he began signing his name "Jan", instead of "Jean".

Upon his return, he married Fanny Julien, a pianist he had met while studying at the École, and they decided to settle in his hometown, leasing property there and planting a small vineyard to help defray expenses.[1] Despite his relatively isolated location, he continued to exhibit regularly at the Salon and won several medals there as well as at the Exposition Universelle (1900).[1]

He was posthumously admitted to the Legion d'honneur in 1905.[2] Four years later, his friend Roland Knoedler (an American art dealer), commissioned Antoine Bourdelle to create a monument in his honor. Unfortunately, it was destroyed during World War II. A replacement was later created by the sculptor Marcel Joosen (born 1943).

Many of his paintings are in small museums in the United States, including the Haggin Museum in Stockton, California.
