Medallion of Professor Pierre-Paul Grassé, 1978
Lacquered shellac studio plaster
Unsigned
D. 26 cm
Inv. MD-S-134-00a
Provenance: Artist's studio, by descent
Marcel Damboise probably met Professor Pierre-Paul Grassé (1895-1985) through his sculptor friends from the Académie, at an event at the Institut. Grassé, an eminent zoologist, has been an Academician since 1948. Marcel Damboise created a medallion and bust portrait of him: a bronze proof of the bust is probably in the scientist's family.
