Biography:
Phillippe-Laurent Roland first studied at the Ecole de Dessin in Lille, France. He then moved to Paris to train in the studio of Augustin Pajou, with whom he collaborated on decorations for the Palais-Royal and the Royal Opera at Versailles. Roland went to Italy in 1771 and stayed there for five years before returning to Paris and joining the Accademie Royale in 1782. In 1784, he gained employment as the decorative sculptor in the apartments of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Roland founded the Institut de France and taught at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts during the French Revolution. He was recognized for his portraits and his Neoclassical style.
