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. Rodin - the supreme artist of the Romantic Age.

Over 200 illustrations, including drawings, contemporary photographs of Rodin, his studio and models, and fascinating documents reveal Rodin's life and working practice. Provides a critical study of the artist whose work redefined late-nineteenth-century French sculpture, discussing his personal life, the evolution of his art, and various sculpture techniques.
