Jules Moigniez was born in Senlis, France. He was a student of Paul Comolera and his attraction to bird sculpture comes from his studies with his teacher. He was one of the leading French animalier sculptors whose most common subjects were game birds but he also sculpted dogs, horses and a few equestrian groups. He exhibited regularly at the annual French Salons from 1859 until 1892 showing a total of thirty works. Moigniez was a successful sculptor in France as well as in England and the USA, where the majority of his game bird sculptures were sold.
