Boizot

Boizot is a French surname. It is most notably associated with Louis-Simon Boizot (1743-1809), a prominent French sculptor. He served as the director of the sculpture workshop at the Sèvres porcelain factory for many years. Boizot's work at Sèvres significantly influenced the style and quality of porcelain production during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He is known for his Neoclassical style and his sculptures often depicted mythological figures, allegorical subjects, and portraits. His works can be found in numerous museums and collections worldwide. The name may also refer to descendants or other individuals who share the same surname, though without the same level of notability as Louis-Simon Boizot.
