François Willème (27 May 1830 – 31 January 1905) was a French painter, sculptor and photographer who in 1859 invented the 'photosculpture', also known as 'sculpture by light', a means of generating 3D forms in a variety of media, clay, marble or electroplated bronze, from photographs taken by a battery of cameras.
