Jean Baptiste Poquelin, dit Molière

This statue commissioned in 1781, shows Moliere writing. The Word Tartuffe is visible on one of the pages under his right hand. Caffieri's inspiration for the face came from a portrait painted by Pierre Mignard. The criticism of the sculptor's work was also a tribute to his skill, his chiselling being described as tender rather than proud, soft rather than vigorous.这座1781年定制的雕像，描绘了莫里哀（Moliere）伏案写作的场景。他右手下方的一页书页上，清晰可见戏剧《伪君子（Tartuffe）》的字样。雕塑家卡费里（Caffieri）在构思雕像面部形象时，灵感源自皮埃尔·米尼亚尔（Pierre Mignard）的一幅肖像作品。后世对这件雕塑作品的评价，亦是对其技艺的高度赞誉：其雕刻刀法被形容为温婉而非张扬，柔润而非刚劲。
