Affortunato Gory is an Italian sculptor active from 1895 to 1925, the year he died in Paris. Originally from Florence, he studied sculpture there at the Academy under the direction of Auguste Rivalta.

He presented his works there until 1923. Gory owes his success to his feminine sculptures peine de grâce as well as to the combined use of the materials of bronze and marble, alabaster or ivory.
