PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in black-and-white and color photography (many full page) with accompanying descriptive captions. "An impassioned observer of life, movement, and the female body, Auguste Rodin was able to represent all three with the most extreme subtlety of expression thanks to his unparalleled skill in modeling and in creating bold compositions. Rodin worked in the tradition of the sculptors of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages. His creative power was equal to Michelangelo's. He rediscovered the essence of sculpture and could achieve as forceful an aesthetic statement in a fragment or unfinished work as other sculptors in an entire group. Undaunted by the controversy and scandals that surrounded almost every one of his works during his lifetime, Rodin dared to exhibit mutilated sculptures and statues." 223 pages. *NOTE: Due to oversize and weight of book significant additional shipping cost will be required for out-of-U.S. shipment.
