Jean BULIO (1827-1911)
Jean Bulio was born in Fabrègues, Hérault, on December 1, 1827. He left for Paris, where he became a student of Armand Toussaint, and then entered the École des Beaux-Arts on October 10, 1851. He debuted at the 1859 Salon with the plaster cast "Pandora." Honorable mention in 1882 and 1886. He exhibited for the last time in 1903 and then retired to Montpellier where he died on March 27, 1911.
SUSSE Frères
The Susse brothers' company, founded in 1758 in Paris, initially specialized in stationery and achieved great success in art foundry. A world-renowned foundry, Maison Susse began producing bronzes in the first half of the 19th century. France's greatest sculptors entrusted them with the bronze casting of their sculptural works, such as Pradier who signed the oldest known publishing contract in 1841. In 1847 they used the reduction method, which enabled them to make small bronze reproductions of famous works. Under the Second Empire the house prospered and many artists enriched its catalog. Confirming their success during the famous Industrial Products Exhibitions in Paris, the Susse brothers are listed as producers of "Art Bronzes for clocks, candelabra, vases, statuettes, etc., starting in 1841." Located on Place de la Bourse in Paris, they also present "furniture, mounted china, and objets d'art" on the second floor of their luxurious store. After the death of the two brothers, Albert Susse succeeded them as director of the firm from 1880 to 1922.
