cy: Denis Leary

French Enlightenment masterpieces such as Georges-Louis Leclerc, comte de Buffon ’ s Histoire naturelle, générale et particulière ( begun in 1749 ) and Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d ' Alembert ’ s Encyclopédie ( volumes added between 1751 and 1772 ) thus became Ampère ’ s schoolmasters.

At the Salon of 1759 he exhibited nine paintings ; it was the first Salon to be commented upon by Denis Diderot, who would prove to be a great admirer and public champion of Chardin's work.

Denis Diderot ( ; October 5, 1713 – July 31, 1784 ) was a French philosopher, art critic, and writer.

Denis Diderot was born in Langres, Champagne, and began his formal education at the jesuitic Collège jésuite in Langres.
