Achille Valois
Achille-Joseph-Étienne Valois (13 January 1785 — 17 December 1862) was a French designer and sculptor who studied for a time in the atelier of Jacques-Louis David and whose sculptural works may be seen in Paris.〔Émile Bellier de La Chavignerie (ed.), ''Dictionnaire général des artistes de l'école française'', ''s.v.'' "Valois, Achille-Joseph-Étienne", includes a longer list of executed commissions.〕 Among his early works is the Fontaine de Léda (1806–08) in Fontainebleau style re-sited in the Jardin du Luxembourg. At the restoration of the Bourbons he hastened to execute a bust of Louis XVIII.〔A bronze cast dated 1814, was sold from the collection of Thierry de Maigret, 10 December 2003, lot 166 ((ArtNet )).〕 In 1816 he sculpted a portrait of ''Madame Royale'' the duchesse d'Angoulême, eldest daughter of the late Louis XVI.〔''Dictionnaire''.〕 His bust of the sculptor Antoine-Denis Chaudet, with whom he had also studied, exhibited at the Salon of 1817, was bought in 1820 for the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Angers.〔Angers 1994, no.28, illustrated.〕 He contributed a marble bas-relief of children representing ''Medicine'' intended for a fountain in Place de la Bastille (1817)〔''Dictionnaire général ''.〕 colossal statues of Louis XVI for Montpellier〔Models shown in the Salons of 1822 and 1827 (''Dictionnaire'').〕 and the cast-iron ''Pêche des coquillages'' (1838–40) to the central ''Fontaines de la Concorde'', designed by Jacques Ignace Hittorff for Place de la Concorde.
As a draughtsman, Valois produced a drawing of the triumphal arrival of celebrated works of art from the Vatican in Paris, 1798,〔Martin Rosenberg, "Raphael's Transfiguration and Napoleon's Cultural Politics", ''Eighteenth-Century Studies'' 19.2 (Winter 1985-1986):180-205) p.193, illus. p. 194.〕 that was copied on a Sèvres porcelain "Etruscan" vase (''Vase Étrusque à rouleaux'') in 1813.〔The vase, conserved in the Musée National de Céramique, Sèvres, is illustrated in Lynn Springer Roberts, "The Londonderry Vase: A Royal Gift to Curry Favor", ''Art Institute of Chicago Museum Studies'' 15.1 (1989:68-81+88) p. 81 fig 14.〕
Valois was made a Chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur in 1825.〔''Dictionnaire général ''.〕
