Maurice Ringot

|Rouen, Seine-Maritime

|This memorial lies in the canton of Duclair, Rouen. It was inaugurated on 12 September 1920. Ringot lived in Le Trait for a period. His brother, an architect, had been commissioned in 1917 to work on renovation of the shipyard and it is thought that Ringot would have been commissioned to execute this memorial due to his brother's contacts in the Le Trait area.[http://www.monumentsauxmorts.fr/crbst_1359.html Le Trait] Les Monuments aux Morts sculptés de la Première Guerre Mondiale en France.

|Malo-les-Bains, Nord

|Ringot was the sculptor of the original Malo-les-Bains War Memorial which now stands in the town's cemetery. Malo-les-Bains is a small town, which lies 3 kilometres east of Dunkirk. Several First World War casualties are buried in the south-western part of the cemetery. Another War memorial, erected in the town's centre, was made by Edmond Delphaut.

|Bergues, Nord

|Bergues is situated 9 kilometers to the south of Dunkirk. Ringot's memorial consists of a wall upon which are recorded the names of the dead of Bergues. A woman holding a palm leaf stands to the right of the wall. Below and on the ground in front of the wall is a dead soldier clutching a branch of laurel. The monument was inaugurated on 10 June 1923, damaged in fighting in 1940, and restored in 1945. Several bullet holes can still be seen in the body of the soldier.{{Base Palissy|IM59000801|Monument aux morts de la guerre de 1914-1918, Bergues}}

|Rosendaël, Nord

|Ringot produced another dramatic composition for Rosendaël, which is also situated close to Dunkirk. The memorial stands in the Place de l'Abbée Bonpain and honours the 481 local citizens who were killed in the Great War. At the top of the composition are two women, one standing and representing France, the other sitting and representing "History and Letters". The woman depicting France is speaking, perhaps recounting the events of the war, whilst the seated woman is listening to her and is ready to write in the book which she holds. Below several soldiers, led by a winged Angel of Victory, appear to spring out from a grave, rising as it were from the dead. The headstone has splintered and symbolically fallen and crushed a German Imperial eagle. Around the base Ringot has sculpted some smaller groups representing the horrors of war: the death of a loved one, aerial bombings, sinking of ships, and the "forced labour" of French citizens sent to work in German factories and on German farms during the war. The monument was inaugurated on 6 November 1921 by the Rosendaël mayor Félix Coquelle.[http://monumentsmorts.univ-lille3.fr/monument-aux-morts/624/ Rosendaël War Memorial.] Institut de Recherches Historiques du Septentrion.

|Leffrinckoucke, Nord

|Ringot was the sculptor of the original Leffrinckoucke War Memorial which showed a family grieving over a soldier's grave but this was destroyed in World War II when the Germans dynamited the church of Sainte-Catherine, judging it to be strategically dangerous. What is left of the memorial is kept in the local cemetery, hidden it seems behind a hedge.[http://monumentsmorts.univ-lille3.fr/monument-aux-morts/422/leffrinckoucke/ Leffrinckoucke] Institut de Recherches Historiques du Septentrion/Base de données de monuments aux morts.Université de Lille 3 / UMR 8529 CNRS / Archives départementales du Nord.

|Armentières, Nord

|This war memorial takes the form of an obelisk in the Place du Général de Gaulle and was erected in 1920. On the sides of the obelisk Ringot depicts two soldiers, one of them dying, two grieving women, one a wife, the "Angel of Victory" and a family in mourning. Also included are the arms of Armentières, a palm leaf, and a funeral crown. The monument honours the 238 men of Armentières who lay down their lives in the Great War.

|La Bassée, Nord

|At the top of the memorial's column is the figure of Joan of Arc and at her feet is written "France". The memorial also has the coat of arms of La Bassée and the Croix de guerre. At the base of the column are two women and a soldier. The soldier and one of the women look up at Joan of Arc. It seems that this memorial was originally destined for Orchamps Vennes but they turned it down, possibly because of the inclusion of Joan of Arc. Certainly when the unveiling took place in La Bassée several ex-soldiers refused to attend saying that the inclusion of Joan of Arc was "inappropriate". The memorial is situated in the Place Jeanne d'Arc at the back of the local church.[http://monumentsmorts.univ-lille3.fr/monument-aux-morts/344/ La Bassée] Institut de Recherches Historiques du Septentrion/Base de données de monuments aux morts.Université de Lille 3 / UMR 8529 CNRS / Archives départementales du Nord.
