context_page_description: Roland Doré was a 17th-century sculptor and his workshop or "atelier" produced many sculptures for the "enclos paroissiaux" or "Parish church enclosure or Closes" of Brittany. In particular his work can be seen on calvaries and in the church's south porch. He was born in 1616 and died in 1660. Little detail of his life is known but it is recorded that he practised as an architect in Landerneau, as well as running his workshop and was recorded as calling himself the "Sculpteur du Roi". His works, all of an ecclesiastical nature, are mainly located in Léon and the north of Cornouaille. Here is a list of some of those works. They can be taken as works by Doré's workshop rather than just by Doré himself. Brittany is particularly rich in calvaries, some of a very elaborate nature. In most cases the calvary involves both the crucifixion cross and side crosses or gibbets bearing the good and the bad robbers. Below this, on the crosspieces, were statues of those present at the crucifixion. A feature of Breton calvaries is that most of the statues were carved as a pair and effectively back to back.
context_section_description: In the south porch of the Sainte-Pitère parish church in Le Tréhou, the Doré atelier executed statues of Saint Peter, Saint Andrew, John the Evangelist and Saint Thomas as well as the "Christ sauveur" which is placed on a pedestal.
