Pierre-Jules Mêne (25 March 1810 – 20 May 1879) was a French sculptor and animalier. He is considered one of the pioneers of animal sculpture in the nineteenth century. As a teenager he worked for his father, a metal turner. By 1837 he was casting his bronze sculptures in his own foundry.
A very important fact when appraising his bronze sculptures is to make sure there isn't a Susse Freres foundry mark. The mark would mean that it was produced after 1894 when Mene's son in law Auguste Cain died and all models were sold to the Susse Fresres foundry.
