Laurent Bouchard, Les bronzes d'Alfred Laliberté, Collection du Musée du Québec, 1978, same image reproduced page 61

One of Quebec’s most celebrated sculptors, Alfred Laliberté was skilled in working in bronze, marble, wood and plaster. Laliberté was awarded public commissions, including monuments to well-known figures such as Wilfred Laurier, Dollard des Ormeaux and Louis Hébert. Le casseur de pierre, which translates as The Stone Breaker, exemplifies his ability to find inspiration in the life of the people in his native Eastern Townships. He is best known for his series of small bronzes that celebrate the legends, customs and trades of rural Quebec.
