 Henri Chapu   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Henri-Michel-Antoine Chapu (29 September 1833 - 21 April 1891) was a French sculptor in a modified Neoclassical tradition.
His statues Mercury of 1861 and Jeanne d'Arc of 1870 (in which she was represented as a peasant girl) were his first big successes, and led to many commissions thereafter.
Notable work included a monument to Henri Regnault in the courtyard of Ecole des Beaux-Arts (1872), the tomb of Marie d'Agoult (1877), and a monument to Gustave Flaubert (1890), his last major work.

 Rodin works
The Monument to Balzac originally was commissioned to the sculptor Henri Chapu.
When Chapu died in 1891, his work still unfinished, Emile Zola, the new president of Societé des Gens de Lettres, set all wheels in motion so that Rodin was invited as a candidate.
The sculpture was associated with an erected phallus; other reactions interpreted the 'Balzac' as Narcissus, masturbating under his protecting coat, or as a "colossal foetus", a "German larva", or simply as a "heap of plaster".

The first depiction of the sculpture appeared in the 1918 yearbook as a frontispiece drawing; a photograph of the sculpture first appeared in the 1919 yearbook.
In 1870 Henri Chapu’s original plaster statue of Joan of Arc was praised as a symbol of French resistance against Prussian aggression.
When it received honors at the 1870 Paris Salon(an annual exhibition that served as a clearinghouse for academically sanctioned art), the French government, as was the custom, commissioned a marble statue based on the plaster original.
