François Dieussart

1600 – 1661

François (Frans) Dieussart, Flemish sculptor. A fully-trained carver from an unknown artistic background in southern Flanders, he, a French-speaker, went to Rome in 1618, presumably to further his knowledge in the vibrant atmosphere for sculpture created by papal patronage. He was likely an active sculptor by the time he arrived in Rome.
