Dumont, François (French sculptor, born 1687 or 1688, died 1726)

Note: Dumont was the second in a long line of sculptors, including his son Edme Dumont, his grandson Jacques-Edme Dumont, and his great-grandson Augustin-Alexandre Dumont. He first worked at the chapel at Versailles in 1709, creating sculptures in stone and plaster. He won the 'Prix de Rome' that same year, but never went to Italy. He was accidentally crushed to death during the installation of one of his own sculptures.
