Artist blending naturalism with sculptural grace.

Eugène Clément Dufossez was a Belgian sculptor. He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he lived during the First World War, before settling in Belgium at 45 Avenue Louise in Saint-Gilles. His work includes figures, busts, animal groups, and bas-reliefs, executed in marble or bronze.

Among his notable works is a marble sculpture La Pleureuse (“The Mourner”), created for the tomb of Paul Dufossez in the Laeken Cemetery. He also produced a bronze version of La Nymphe endormie, dated 1912, now preserved in the Artistic Heritage Collection of the City of Brussels.

Dufossez exhibited at the Brussels International Exhibition in 1910, presenting a Bust of a Child. He also regularly participated in the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris, where he was awarded a gold medal in 1923. His works are held in several public collections, including the Centre National des Arts Plastiques (France), which acquired his Marble Torso of a Woman in 1924.
