Biography :
René Paris (1881-1970) was a French animal sculptor who exhibited at the Salon since 1897. He produced several works purchased by the French State or French cities, such as his group entitled "In the Shorebreakers" acquired by the city of Le Croisic in 1913. The work exhibited in 1910 at the Salon was diverted from its original meaning and converted into a commemorative monument in homage to Hervé Rielle. His "Wolf-dog" in granite made in 1912, rewarded the same year with a bronze medal at the Salon of French Artists, was erected in 1928 in Saint-Lambert Square in Paris, on the site of the former Vaugirard gasworks. René Paris also produced a stone sculpture, "The Dead Lion" in 1922, installed for the War Memorial of the 130th Division, the location of which marks the extreme limit of the German advance, during the assault on Verdun during the First World War.

Born in Melun in 1957, Jager is a French sculptor and painter. Passionate about equitation, he is famous for making representations of horses in plaster and bronze in all their forms. He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Dijon and is currently living in France. Rather than just being an artist, he describes himself as a dreamer: unpredictable and passionate. For Frédéric JAGER, beauty is a must. His style, classic, figurative, is stunning in this world of contemporary art. Bringing bronze to life, his works always capture the energy and beauty of the horse “Because unlike men, a horse is always beautiful, always strong, always sad.”
Several large companies, such as HERMES, NINA RICCI, goldsmith MELLERIO, CHEVIGNON, SOCIETE GENERALE, HORSE WOOD, watches PEQUIGNET, SWEATERIE, have called upon him for sculptures, decorative objects, advertising works, or trophies for the races.
He has had numerous solo exhibitions, and has also participated in a myraid of art fairs such as the ‘Salon International de Saumur’, the Animal Sculpture Biennale of Rambouillet, the Derby Horse in Art...
