Biography:
Francois Rude was a French Romantic sculptor. He was a supported of Napoleon Bonaparte and this admiration was evident in his work. He won the Prix de Rome in 1812, but could not study there because of the Napoleonic Wars. After Napoleon’s defeat in 1815, Rude went into exile in Brussels. He returned to Paris in 1827 and regained his notoriety as a sculptor of public monuments. An example of his work ins a high relief on the Arc de Triomphe titled Departure of the Volunteers in 1792 and also known as La Marseillaise.
