Monument to Louis de Brézé
by GOUJON, Jean, Alabaster and black marble
At the beginning of his career Goujon paid service to the past, as we see in the monument to Louis de Br�z�, which still owes much to the traditional northern Flemish handling of architecture, figures and details.
The tomb incorporates Virtues inspired by ancient caryatides, and its equestrian statue recalls analogous sculptures of the king and royal dignitaries above the entries of contemporary châteaux.
