This marble sculpture, signed and dated in 1834, was made by Jean-Jacques (James) Pradier (Geneva, 1790 - Paris, 1852). It depicts Louis-Philippe (1773-1850), the King of France between 1830 and 1848. Living in the Palace of Tuilieries nearby to the Louvre, the King became incredibly interested in the museum, where he installed his collection of Spanish antiquities.
