The Famous French Collection
Many of his most notable sculptures were criticized, as they clashed with predominant figurative sculpture traditions in France.
He refused to change his style, and his continued output brought increasing favor from the government and the artistic community.
By the age of 60, he was a world-renowned artist.
Did you know ?
Although he was often photographed with hammer and chisel, Rodin never carved the marble himself.
He had an idea, designed a model in clay and plaster, but asked assistants to carve the sculpture in marble and only made a few alterations.
