Henri Honoré Plé (185 -1922) studied under Gérault and Mathurin Moreau. He worked as a painter and sculptor of portraits and bas-reliefs.

Seductive oriental figures or powerful male figures, mostly heroes of history or mythology, occupy an important part in the eclectic production of this sculptor.

He exhibited at the Salon from 1877 and won an honorable mention in 1879, before receiving a bronze medal at the Exposition Universelle de Paris in 1900.

The founders Barbedienne and Thiébaut published bronze prints after several works by Plé.
