	Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux
		Jean Baptiste Carpeaux (sometimes called Jules Carpeaux) was born on May 11, 1827, in Valenciennes, the son of a mason.
		Ten years later, in 1846, Carpeaux studied at the École des Beaux-Arts, and he quickly stood apart from the neoclassic formulas of his time in the vehement expressiveness of his figures, that are outstanding for their animation and lifelike grace.
		Jean Goujon and Germain Pilon were famous 16th-century Mannerist sculptors; in the 17th century Pierre Puget sculpted in the baroque style; Puget inspired the 18th-century French rococo sculptors Jean Baptiste Pigalle and Claude Michel.

	Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (1812-1875)
		The son and grandson of stonemasons, Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux was born in 1827 in Valenciennes and moved to Paris at the age of eleven.
		Carpeaux moved from Ecole painter Abel de Pujol (1785-1861), to the independent sculptor François Rude, and finally to the prestigious Ecole sculptor Francisque-Joseph Duret (1804-1865).
		Carpeaux's influence can be seen in the work of the later luminaries--Aimé-Jules Dalou, for instance--but it especially permeates the theories and art of Auguste Rodin, his student at the Petite Ecole and an admirer throughout his long and eminent career.
