Description
Rodin - passionate, demanding, sensual: and his whole personality went into his sculpture. He created a new sculptural language, realistic and physical, highly charged with emotion, conveying sexuality more directly than ever before. Over 200 illustrations, including drawings, contemporary photographs of Rodin, his studio and models, and fascinating documents reveal Rodin's life and working practice.
