Jean de Court used Limoges enamel#Renaissance [painted enamel|painted Limoges enamel] and oil painting, and served as official portrait painter to the monarchs of Scotland and France. The de Court dynasty of enamel painters ran a workshop making Limoges enamel over several generations in Limoges in south-western France.
In 1567, he is recorded as a valet and court painter of Mary [Queen of Scots], although it is not clear if he had actually accompanied her to Scotland. In 1572, he succeeded François Clouet as painter to the king at the court of her brother-in-law Charles IX of France, and was in turn succeeded by his son, Charles de Court, in 1584 or 1589. Jean de Court painted in 1574 a portrait of Henry [III of France|Henry III], then List of [Counts and Dukes of Anjou|Duke of Anjou]. He painted a miniature portrait of him as king four years later.
Noted enamel painter Susanne Court is speculated to have been the daughter of Jean.
