Henri Gouzien

Henri Gouzien was born in 1889 in Lorient in Morbihan.

Most of his recorded work involves sculptural work for war memorials in the Morbihan area and many of his compositions include a grieving woman in Breton costume.

"REQUIEXANT IN PACE""Aux enfants de Languiduic morts pour la patrie"These inscriptions are written in Breton and French, and in front of the obelisk is a sculpture of a praying woman in Breton dress.
