Therese looked at a bronze figure by Carpeaux, placed on the chiffonier.
He had the opportunity of seeing his modeling corrected by Carpeaux.

Carpeaux designed the sculptures ornamenting the pediment, which represented the Defense of Valenciennes.
"Carpeaux has nothing on this young lady," insisted Quair flippantly; and he pivoted on his heel and sat down beside the model.
After producing a statue of the prince imperial, Carpeaux was made chevalier of the Legion of Honour in 1866.
Carpeaux used to say that he never passed the "Chant du Départ" without taking off his hat.
Carpeaux perhaps never did anything that quite equals the masterpiece of his master Rude.
Traces of Carpeaux's influence are plain in his way of conceiving such subjects as Carpeaux would have handled.
