    Jules Clamagirand (Paris, 1870 - Tourcoing, 1937)
    Sculptor and ornamentalist, student of Truphème and Abel Poulain, he is believed to have participated in the creation of the sculptures for the Pont Alexandre III in Paris. He exhibited a plaster medallion at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1894. Around 1899, he joined Louis Allard fils, a prominent sculpture and decoration firm in Roubaix.

    In 1906, he received the title of Officer of the Academy, notably for his work on the decoration of the pavilions at the Tourcoing Textile Industries Exhibition. He then worked on architectural decorations, statues, ornamental models, and funerary monuments.

    From 1911, he taught sculpture and modeling at the Tourcoing School of Fine Arts.

    He participated in the decoration of the Grand Théâtre in Lille, private homes in Roubaix, Tourcoing, and Lille, the Chapel of the Vow in Tourcoing, and other projects. This bronze plaque fits perfectly within the artist's oeuvre; it likely adorned a house or a performance venue, as its numerous symbols allude to live performance (theater, opera, shows, etc.), or it could have served as a model for a larger commission.
