COYSEVOX, Antoine
(b. 1640, Lyon, d. 1720, Paris)

Bust of Marie Serre

1706
Marble
Musée du Louvre, Paris

Coysevox was a great portraitist. His bust of Rigaud's mother, Marie Serre (signed or inscribed and dated 1706), has both directness and dignity. Rigaud's painting of his mother served as model for the sculptor.
