Maurice Frecourt (1890-1961) Maurice Frecourt, French sculptor and bronze worker, born in Charenton-le-Pont on March 18, 1890. A student of sculptors Charles Valton (1851-1918) and Alfred Boucher (1850-1934), he began his apprenticeship at the School of Fine Arts in Paris, where he obtained his diploma in 1920. His youth and enthusiasm enabled him to make a name for himself in the field of art, and particularly in animal sculpture. He participated in the Salon des Artistes Français in 1920, where he gained renown and prestige by successfully translating the hieratic imperatives of the Art Deco style into his vision of the animal world. He had a passion for all animals, whether domestic or wild, and they served as models throughout his career. Maurice Frecourt died in Paris on January 20, 1961, and is buried in the Lilas Cemetery.
