Albert Roze

Albert Dominique Roze (1861–1952) was a 19th-century sculptor from Amiens, France. He was a prolific sculptor creating many notable works displayed in public spaces in France.

One of his more important sculptures was entitled The Golden Virgin; it was destroyed in 1915 during World War I. The sculpture was placed on top of the Basilique Notre-Dame de Brebières. After World War I the statue was never recovered.

The sculpture of the Golden Virgin was recast and fitted atop the 76-meter bell tower in 1929, during the reconstruction of the Basilica 1927–1931.
