Excerpt from A History of Painting
A year after Niccolo, died Francois Clouet, in I 572 thus the two rival streams of art, the Flemish and Italian, ended two years before the death of Charles Ix.
Now this work of Primaticcio at Fontainebleau was to mean much to France. He added grace and elegance to the art of Rosso - he founded his art on that of Giulio Romano, Michelangelo, and Correggio. He it was who chie¿y dragged the alien gods into France. Primaticcio carried on some of Kosso's tricks, such as the elongation of the figures, but he brought a far more gracious art to France. This elongation is the sign of nearly all primitive schools, whether Flemish or Italian, whether Botticelli or Memlinc. So far, then, we cannot Speak of a national French School of Fontainebleau - it was, until the end of the years of Henri II, absolutely Italian. Out of it was to grow the Italianesque French School of Fontainebleau, such as it was, and that is about all we can say for the alien thing.
