Jacquou le Croquant n'est pas seulement le personnage principal du roman èponyme d'Eugene Le Roy (1836-1907), Ecrivain régional péridourdin ayant vècu quelques annees à la Perception de Domme.

Jacquou le Croguant (the cruncher) is not only the main character of the eponymous novel by Eugene Le Roy (1836-1907), Péridourdin regional writer who lived a few years in the Perception of Domme. Jacquou is Le Petit Chose during the dark years of the Restoration in Périgord, David versus Goliath fight against all the oppression and reaction, battling against the powerful of the day, against the merits of birth. Of the Croquats, they have always been in Périgord, a radical land if any. In this sense, the Jacquou le Croguant Republican is a myth, a myth of our time. It was shown in the movie luminous black and white by Stellio Lorenxi, it remains in all the memories ...
The work is carved directly into a single block of stone of several tons by the Dommois sculptor Mic Bertincourt
