Paul-Albert Bartholome was born in Thiverval-Grignon, slightly north of Paris. Little is known of his early life except that he studying briefly at the Academie des Beaux-Arts in Paris and started his career as a painter, turning to sculpture in 1886.

His recumbent form is perched on a rise a few dozen feet in front of and to the right of his most noted creation. The aux Morts statuary is said to have been inspired by his wife’s death in 1888. Bartholome also carved the monument to Rousseau in the Pantheon, the monument to Dubufe in division 10 in Pere-Lachaise, monuments to Meilhac in Division 21 and Pam in Division 3 in Montparnasse Cemetery.
