Studies the work of Rodin
Rodin was considered the most famous sculptor of his time, not only in France but throughout Europe, America, and Australia. The expressive liberty and emotional intensity of Rodin?s figures had an enormous impact on the culture and the art of the entire twentieth century. This compact book illustrates a significant group of works which represent Rodin?s entire artistic career: sculptures, drawings, and watercolors, as well as contemporary photographs. The selection of sculpture is supplemented by outstanding drawings made by Rodin around 1900, at the height of his career. The presentation of these exciting works on paper along with the sculptures gives insight into Rodin?s working process. They also reveal a more intense and less dramatic side of his genius. The book includes contributions by Jörg Zutter, Antoinette Le Normand-Romain, Claudie Judrin, Jaynie Anderson, and Paul Paffen.
This exceptional publication includes nearly 200 works, the majority of which come from the Musée Rodin in Paris. Well-produced and meticulously documented, the catalogue entries are further illuminated by scores of photographs of Rodin's celebrated sculptures (including such masterworks as the "Balzac" -- in Steichen's celebrated photograph -- the headless "Striding Man", and the disturbingly powerful "Gates of Hell") of the sculptor himself throughout his career, and many of the important personalities with whom he was intimate, such as Rainer Maria Rilke, and Count Harry Kessler. Of special interest are comparative photographs of the actual structures that accompany the famous drawings of the French cathedrals. The catalogue entries of impeccable scholarship are here interwoven with the illustrations to create a stimulating biography of a master sculptor and an unique human being. -- From publisher's description.
This is a catalogue raisonné of Rodin's bronzes. There are 455 entries with over a thousand pictures in 2 volumes. Each work lists the inventory number, the technique and a bibliography. Information about provenance and historical context along with comparison to other works is also included. The research is meticulous and the cross-references invaluable.
