When the Paris Salon rejected one of this artist's works, a contemporary stated that "an entirely nude figure is not as indecent as one draped with false modesty." That sculpture, sometimes called "The Shivering Girl," is a depiction of a young woman wearing nothing but a shawl wrapped over her upper body. This man made a portrait bust of a young girl whose hair is secured by a kerchief-like band, as well one of that girl's brother, Alexandre. In addition to a bust of Louise Brongniart, this artist explored the detailed anatomy of a (*) flayed man in his Ã‰corchÃ© sculpture, which became a popular model in art schools. This sculptor molded the funerary mask of a bald-pated philosopher he had earlier depicted both with and without a wig. A plow, fasces, and a sword evoke Cincinnatus in this artist's sculpture of a hero of the American Revolution, who holds a cane and rests his arm on a pillar. For 10 points, name this French neoclassical sculptor of George Washington and many depictions of Voltaire.
