Claude Galle (1759 - 1815), was one of the most renowned Parisian bronze makers of the late 18th century and Empire period.<\/p>\n
At first, he collaborated with the founder Antoine-Andr\u00e9 Ravrio and with Jean Haur\u00e9, then under the Empire, he became one of the main competitors of his colleague Pierre-Philippe Thomire and supplied many furniture bronzes to the Imperial Furniture Guard and to the greatest collectors of the time.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
