Jules Moigniez (1835-1894)

Jules Moigniez is a French animal sculptor .
He was a student of Paul Comolera (1818 – 1897) , a great sculptor specializing in birds , himself a student of François Rude .

J.Moigniez exhibited his first sculpture "Dog Braque stopping a pheasant" at the age of twenty at the Universal Exhibition of 1855 in Paris .
He then exhibited regularly at the Salon , from 1859 to 1892 , where he obtained an honorable mention in the first year .
He presented his sculptures again at the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1878.

Jules Moigniez enjoyed great success , particularly in England and the United States .
Indeed , his works are considered remarkably detailed , with very thorough carving , complemented by elegance in attitudes .
Faced with his son's success , his father created a foundry especially for him .
