Jean Alexandre Joseph Falguière (French pronunciation: [ʒɑ̃ alɛksɑ̃dʁ ʒozɛf falɡjɛʁ]; also given as Jean-Joseph-Alexandre Falguière, or in short Alexandre Falguière) (7 September 1831 – 20 April 1900) was a French sculptor and painter.
Toulouse-born alexandre falguière found wide acceptance as a sculptor in Second Empire Paris, receiving numerous commissions for monuments to be erected in public buildings and squares. Official success came early. He won the Prix de Rome in 1859 and studied at the Académie de France à Rome until 1865.[1]

Tarcisius was a young, Christian martyr who probably lived in the third century in the Roman Empire, and who died trying to protect the sacraments he was carrying. Falguière chose the moment when, having just swallowed the sacraments, the boy is beaten to death by pagans.
A partir des années 1870, Alexandre Falguière poursuit simultanément une carrière de peintre et de sculpteur. Lutteurs, sa première grande composition, retient l'attention des critiques et lui vaut une médaille de seconde classe au Salon de 1875.
