Paul Cabet

Jean-Baptiste Paul Cabet (1 February 1815, Nuits, Yonne – 1876, Paris), was a French sculptor. He was the pupil of François Rude, his stepfather. Having achieved his own fame, he was the author of the statue known under the name of Résistance as a witness to the heroic fightings in Dijon during the 1870 war and other statues located in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.[1]
