Introducing Auguste Rodin

Om Introducing Auguste Rodin

This book introduces Auguste Rodin, one of the world's best-known sculptors, whose radical approach to both subject and technique earned him the title 'the father of modern sculpture'. For the first time, this publication reproduces in full all the Rodin sculptures in the Burrell Collection, which holds the second largest grouping of sculptures by Auguste Rodin in the UK. The 14 sculptures were collected by William Burrell over four decades and reveal the variety of Rodin's work, from small, decorative pieces, to dramatic life-size artworks. Among them are early, formative works such as The Age of Bronze, famous sculptures including The Thinker and a unique cast, The Wave. New photography shows the sculptures from many viewpoints and reveals details close up. Archive photographs of the artist give readers fascinating glimpses of Rodin at different periods of his life. Illuminating descriptions of the works, an accessible explanation of techniques and an overview of the artist's career allow for a deeper appreciation of Rodin's journey to becoming one of history's greatest sculptors.
