François Joseph Bosio was a French Neoclassical sculptor.
François Joseph Bosio was a pupil of the sculptor Augustin Pajou. With the support of the latter he made a study trip to Italy, where he studied statues by antique masters. He was also court sculptor to Kings Louis XVIII and Charles X.
At that time, he was favored by the French monarchs: Napoleon I decorated him with the Legion of Honor, Louis XVIII awarded him with the royal order of Saint Michail, he became an Institute of France member (in 1816) and in 1822, was granted the title of royal sculptor.
He was the director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Paris. The influence of Antonio Canova is noticeable in his sculptures.
