Le Tâcheron, Marble sculpture in Jardin Massey, Tarbes, France.

Le Tâcheron depicts a man performing labor tasks, standing at 162 centimeters tall and crafted from pure white marble in the neoclassical style.

The sculpture was presented at the 1900 Salon des Artistes Français in Paris before finding its permanent location in Jardin Massey.

The sculpture represents manual labor and working-class dignity through its detailed representation of physical effort and determined expression.

Visitors can examine the sculpture during Jardin Massey opening hours, with direct access from the central pathways of the garden.

A preparatory drawing of Le Tâcheron remains preserved in the inventory collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris.
