Ferdinand Barbedienne was of the most famous Foundry Makers of the 19th Century. His Company Originally started in France in the late 1830\'s by Ferdinand Barbedienne and his partner, Achille Collas. Achille Collas originally invented a machine that would mechanically make statues smaller. Their first renditions produced were bronze reductions of antique sculptures Originating from Greeks and Romans . Their downfall came in 1848 when the revolution and financial collapse had occurred. It had affected many artists and foundry makers. After enduring many difficulties with the turn of the revolution in 1848, the firm began to increasingly expand its activities. They worked for a number of renowned sculptors, producing works of notes including Rude\'s standing pose of Godefroy Cavaignac, Clesinger (for whom they serve as the exclusive founders), David d\'Angers and many other artists, as well as some personal objects, chandeliers, and fireplace accessories. Achille Collas died in 1859 leaving Barbedienne as the sole owner of the foundry which had then expanded to 300 employees working under him. Barbedienne\'s head office was established at the Boulevard Poissonniere, and his studios at Rue de Lancry.
Ferdinand Barbedienne was made the President of the Reunion of Bronze Makers in 1865. In 1870, with the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war and the shortage of supplies, affected his ability to produce sculptures. He was, however, able to keep his foundry open to produce cannons from France\'s Government. When the war was over, he continued to cast his bronzed and was very relentless and persistant into signing contracts with various sculptors. He held his Office with the President of the Reunion of Bronze Makers for 20 years until 1885. Barbedienne died in 1891 leaving his name, legacy, and many admirers and Collectors of his Museum Quality Masterpieces.
