Born in 1891, Raymond Subes, was a French artist-decorator specializing in wrought iron. In 1926, he designed the handrails and balustrades for the liner Île-de-France, followed by the liners Lafayette (1930), L’Atlantique (1931) and Le Normandie (1935). He also created the telescopic lampposts for the Carrousel bridge in Paris. He designed ironwork for the Banque de France, the Palais de Tokyo, insurance company headquarters, major Parisian hotels and restaurants (such as Lutetia, Georges V, Fouquet’s…), airports (Orly, Le Bourget), department stores, historic monuments and national palaces. Raymond Subes was consequently one of the most famous French wrought-iron craftsmen of the Art Deco period.
