Étienne-Jules Ramey (24 May 1796 – 29 October 1852), called Ramey fils, was a French sculptor.
Ramey was born in Paris. The pupil of his father, Claude Ramey (1754–1838), he also trained in the studio of Pierre Cartellier. [1] He won the Prix de Rome in sculpture in 1815 with the subject, equally classicizing and sentimental, Ulysses recognized by his dog. [1] He collaborated with David d'Angers on the sculptures for the triumphal arch at Marseille, the Porte d'Aix, 1828 to 1839.
He worked in partnership with Augustin-Alexandre Dumont and taught at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. His pupils included the sculptors Guillaume Geefs, Jean-Joseph Perraud, and Amédée Ménard. He died in Paris.
His careful, mannered drawings appear on the market from time to time. [2]
