Hyacinthe Collin de Vermont was a French painter.
He was born into a prosperous family: his father was a teacher and engineer, and his brother François Collin de Blamont (1690-1760) was Surintendant de la Musique de la Chambre.
Collin de Vermont was a pupil of Jean Jouvenet and Hyacinthe Rigaud.
In 1715 Collin came second in the Prix de Rome competition with the Gratitude of the People towards Judith (untraced).
As a result he was granted a scholarship at the Académie de France in Rome and spent the years 1716 to 1720 there. The Académie’s director, Charles Pöerson, rated him as one of the best pupils he had encountered.
