Daubigny, Charles-François (1817–78). French landscape painter, one of the earliest exponents of
plein-air painting in France. He came from a family of artists and was taught initially by his father
Edmé-François (1789–1843), likewise a landscape painter; he also learnt a good deal by copying 17th-century Dutch pictures in the Louvre. Although he is considered a member of the
Barbizon School, he never actually lived in the locality, and his favourite subjects were river—rather than forest —scenes (he often painted from a specially fitted boat). His work, which is notable for the sensitivity with which he depicted the effects of light on trees and water, was an important influence on early
Impressionism. He was influential not only stylistically but also through the support and encouragement he gave to younger painters; as a member of the
Salon jury in 1868, he helped to get the work of several of the Impressionists shown, and it was he who introduced
Monet and
Pissarro to the dealer
Durand-Ruel, when all four of them had taken refuge in England during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–1.
