Deruet, Claude (b Nancy, c.1588; bur. Nancy, 20 Oct. 1660). French painter who, like Bellange and Callot, worked mainly for the court of the dukes of Lorraine at Nancy. He ran a busy studio and had a highly successful career (his other patrons included Louis XIII and Cardinal Richelieu), but much of his work has been destroyed and his surviving paintings are in a pedestrian Mannerist style that was a generation out of date at the time of his death. The best known are four vast allegorical scenes representing the Elements (c.1640, Mus. B.-A., Orléans), painted for Richelieu. In 1625–6 the young Claude worked as Deruet's assistant.
