EUSTACHE (luh-sur'), a French painter; born in 1617. He married in 1644, and was compelled for a living to execute vignettes and frontispieces for books. His great work was the series of paintings which he executed for the Carthusian monastery in Paris in 1645-1648, delineating in 22 pictures the principal scenes in the life of St.
Bruno. In 1650 he painted for the corporation of goldsmiths the "Preaching of the Apostle Paul at Ephesus." All of these are large paintings, and are now in the Louvre. He died in 1655.
