Antoine Bofill was born in Barcelona and trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in his native city, but he was active in the Parisian art world for most of his career. Bofill was primarily known as an Animalier, the group of 19th century sculptors specialising in animal groups. Bofill experimented with different materials in his usually small scale objects, including ivory and silver. He exhibited in Spain, Germany, Austria, and France, including the Salons of the Society of French Artists from 1894 to 1910.
