Giovanni Duprè (1817 - 1882) was an Italian sculptor, of distant French stock long settled in Tuscany, who developed a reputation second only to that of his contemporary Lorenzo Bartolini. In an open contest run by the Accademia di Belle Arti, he won first prize with a Judgment of Paris and made his reputation with the life-size figure of the dead Abel. He followed this with a more classical Cain. In 1863 Duprè created his finest work, the Pietà. Many works of Giovanni Dupre can be found gathered in two particular places in Tuscany.
