Jean-François-Maurice-Arnauld Dudevant, known as Baron Dudevant but better known by the pseudonym Maurice Sand (30 June 1823 – 4 September 1889), was a French writer, artist and entomologist.[1] He studied art under Eugène Delacroix and also experimented in various other subjects, including geology and biology.
He was the elder child and only son of George Sand, a French novelist and feminist, and her husband, Baron François Casimir Dudevant. In addition to his numerous novels, he is best remembered for his monumental study of commedia dell'arte – Masques et bouffons (comédie italienne), 1860.[2]
