Le Vainqueur du Combat de Coq (The Winner of the Cockfight) is a celebrated bronze sculpture created by the French artist Jean-Alexandre-Joseph Falguière in 1864. Falguière, a prominent sculptor of the 19th century, was known for his dynamic and expressive works that often captured moments of intense emotion and physical prowess. This particular piece exemplifies his skill in rendering the human form and his ability to convey a narrative through sculpture.

The sculpture depicts a young, triumphant boy, nude, holding a rooster aloft in his right hand, symbolizing his victory in a cockfight. The boy's posture is one of exuberant pride, with his left arm raised and his body slightly twisted, creating a sense of movement and vitality. The detailed musculature and the naturalistic rendering of the boy's form highlight Falguière's mastery of anatomy and his commitment to realism.

Le Vainqueur du Combat de Coq was first exhibited at the Salon of 1864, where it garnered significant attention and acclaim. The work was praised for its lively composition and the artist's ability to capture the youthful exuberance and competitive spirit of the boy. The sculpture reflects the 19th-century fascination with classical themes and the human body, while also engaging with contemporary interests in realism and naturalism.

Falguière's work is often associated with the academic tradition, yet it also displays a unique personal style that sets it apart from his contemporaries. Le Vainqueur du Combat de Coq remains an important piece in the study of 19th-century French sculpture, illustrating the blend of classical influence and modern sensibilities that characterized the period. The sculpture is housed in various collections, including the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to be admired by art enthusiasts and scholars alike.
