Jean-Jacques Caffieri
(29 April 1725 - 22 June 1792) was a French sculptor. He was appointed
sculpteur du Roi
to Louis XV and later afforded lodgings in the Galeries du Louvre. He designed the fine
rampe d'escalier
which still adorns the Palais Royal. He is better known for his portrait busts, in terracotta or marble: his bust of Madame du Barry is at the Hermitage Museum, St Petersburg. He made a name with his busts of Pierre Corneille and Jean Racine for the foyer of the Comédie Française.
