About the artist:

Etienne Maurice Falconet (1 December 1716 – 4 January 1791) is counted among the first rank of French Rococo sculptors, whose patron was Mme de Pompadour.

Falconet was born to a poor family in Paris. He was at first apprenticed to a carpenter, but some of his clay figures, with the making of which he occupied his leisure hours, attracted the notice of the sculptor Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne, who made him his pupil. One of his most successful early sculptures was of Milo of Croton, which secured his admission to the membership of the Academie des beaux-arts in 1754.
