This bronze bust, created in 1785 by Jean-Baptiste Pigalle, depicts Jean-Rodolphe Perronet, a prominent French engineer. Pigalle, a leading sculptor of the Neoclassical era, captures Perronet's likeness with remarkable detail, showcasing his characteristic sharp features and intelligent gaze. The bust, sculpted just months before Pigalle's death, exemplifies his masterful skill in capturing human form and expression. Perronet, a key figure in the development of French infrastructure, is honored through this portrait, which is a testament to both Pigalle's artistry and Perronet's legacy.
