Catalogue Note
Félix-Maurice Charpentier studied at the École des Beaux Arts under the celebrated sculptor and professor Pierre-Jules Cavelier (1814-1896) and exhibited at the Salons from 1884 onwards, winning several medals. He was regarded as one of the oustanding scupltors of his day. His sculpture was marked by freedom o🦋f expression and beauty of form and personified "Modern Art."
