Antoine Bofill was a Spanish artist best known for his small, decorative bronze sculptures. Bofill often focused on Neoclassical themes, historical scenes, female nudes, and, most frequently, animals. Born in 1875 in Barcelona, Spain, he studied at the Academy of Beaux Arts in Barcelona, Spain, before garnering contact with the Parisian art world. He went on to regularly exhibit in the prestigious salons of Societe des Artistes from 1901 to the mid-1920s.
