Eisen was a French painter, illustrator and draughtsman born in Valenciennes.  Eisen moved to Paris around 1740 to work for the engraver, Jacques-Philippe Lebas. In the studio of Lebas, Eisen made drawings that other assistants diligently engraved.

In 1745, Eisen was commissioned to illustrate the engagement of the Dauphin Louis to Maria Theresa of Spain. This first major project greatly boosted Eisen’s reputation and independence as an artist. A few years later, Eisen produced forty-three drawings for the work of a well-known French poet, Nicolas Boileau.

During the late 1740s, Eisen entered a financial battle with the Académie de Saint-Luc after refusing to pay an entry fee. Eisen eventually won the battle and was able to maintain his studio without paying the regular fee.

Eisen is generally classified as a figure of the French Rococo era, known for being ornate and florid. Eisen was skilled at the decorative style and received steady illustration commissions, complimenting the classical texts of Virgil, Tacitus, Ovid and Erasmus. Later in Eisen’s career, he gave drawing lessons to the infamous Madame de Pompadour and became an official court painter by 1750.

Toward the end of his life, the Rococo style was no longer popular, and Eisen stopped receiving commissions for illustrations or paintings. Eisen died in Brussels in a poor state. Since Eisen’s death, his work has resurfaced and is now in major museum collections around the world and valued for his contributions to the Rococo period.
