Auguste Rodin 1892

This bronze bust, sculpted by Camille Claudel in 1892, is a powerful portrayal of Auguste Rodin, the renowned French sculptor. Claudel, Rodin's student and lover, captured his intense gaze and rugged features with striking realism. The rough, textured surface of the sculpture reflects the emotional turmoil of their relationship, contributing to its raw and deeply personal quality. The work, now housed in the Musée Rodin in Paris, offers a unique insight into the artistic and personal dynamic between two giants of the art world.
