Maurice PROST: he was born in March 13, 1894 in Paris and he died in 1967.
20th Century, French.
He exhibited in Paris at the Salon des Artistes Français where he obtained a honorable mention in 1922, a silver medal in 1936 and a gold medal in 1963. He received the Legion of Honor in 1933.
While the fate has just hit him (his arm was amputated the first months of the 1914's war), he abandoned his craft jewelry carver and opted for his passion: animal sculpture. He was a sculptor in direct carving, the hardest of the crafts. This choice was surprising considering his disability but revealed a will and a courage that characterized him throughout his life.
From 1919 to 1945, Prost realized most of his creations. Artist recognized by the public, by the critics and by his peers, he has received during his career the highest distinctions. He left a work illustrates one of the richest eras of the twentieth century with a great diversity.
