Paul Landowski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Landowski (Jun 4, 1875, Paris - Mar 27, 1961, Boulogne-Billancourt) was a French monumental sculptor.

A graduate of the French national academy, he won the Prix de Rome in 1900 with his statue of David, and went on to a 55 year career that would produce over 35 monuments in the city of Paris and twelve more in the surrounding area.

He was the father of the painter, Nadine Landowski (1908-1943), the composer Marcel Landowski (1915-1999) and the pianist and painter, Françoise Landowski-Caillet (born in 1917).
