"Epoux Chinois, A Pair of Busts (The Chinese Couple, A Pair of Busts) are sculptures created by Charles Cordier, a renowned French ethnographic sculptor who lived between 1827 and 1905. The pair of busts, as the name suggests, represent a Chinese man and woman. They are a part of his range of works celebrating human diversity and a curiosity for non-western cultures.

Cordier's work was influenced by his engagement with ethnographic realism, a movement that sought to depict different racial types in a manner that was both scientifically accurate and artistically appealing. His busts were often carved from bronze and onyx to highlight the diversity in human skin tones, more consequently, highlighting the beauty of diversity.

The Chinese Couple is one of Cordier's most well-known works. It was created in 1851 when Cordier was in Paris. His choice of subjects reflected the diversity of Paris at the time, as well as his own interests in non-western cultures. The busts are known for their accurate, detailed ethnographic attributes and possess a certain romantic sensibility towards the subjects.

These busts capture more than just the physical appearance of the subjects; they also capture the spirit of Chinese culture, thereby representing Cordier's commitment to cultural diversity and inclusivity. The works stand as vital components of Cordier's oeuvre, embodying his commitment to confronting and challenging the Eurocentric prejudices of his time."
