David Pierre-Jean, better known as David d'Angers, was a French sculptor of the first half of the 19th century, a representative of Romanticism and Neoclassicism. David d'Angers was also an outstanding medallist, he created a number of unique coins and medals, which today are of great value to collectors.

Over the course of his career, David d'Angers captured in stone, bronze, and plaster a large number of famous people of his era. In addition to full-length statues, he created hundreds of busts, as well as a number of unique tombstones installed in the famous Parisian cemetery of Père Lachaise.
