Alfred Richard. Sculptor. Wood carver. Saint-Ubald, Port-Neuf, Quebec. Active mid 20th century.

Alfred Richard was a brother of Wilfrid Richard.  Alfred Richard was also a carver; as were so many members of this talented family. Carvings by him are rarely seen and images of his work are difficult to find.
