Item Details
Description
Titled "Nuage" (Cloud), wood sculpture on painted wooden base. Size: 10 x 7 1/4 x 44 1/2 in. Born into a family of joiners and carpenters, the master-sculptor Jean-Julien Bourgault lived the majority of his life in Saint-Jean-Port-Joli. After studying fine woodworking in Quebec City, near the end of the 1920s, he returned to Saint-Jean-Port-Joli to begin an apprenticeship in his two brothers' sculpting workshop. During this period, the work of the Bourgault brothers would become increasingly popular and promoted by the ethnologist Marius Barbeau. The three brothers Bourgault opened the École de sculpture de Saint-Jean-Port-Joli in 1940. They gained popularity by creating numerous wooden sculptures inspired by Quebecois folklore.
