A Cast Bronze Sculpture, Adam, By Auguste Rodin Special Patina 3 Feet Tall Decor
Rodin Has Been Appreciated For Decades As One Of The Pre-Eminent Realist Sculptors Of The Late Nineteenth- And Early Twentieth-Century. Rodin'S Goal, As He Put It, Was "To Render Inner Feelings Through Muscular Movement." He Achieved This Aim By Joining His Profound Knowledge Of Anatomy And Movement With Special Attention To The Body'S Surfaces, Saying, "The Sculptor Must Learn To Reproduce The Surface, Which Means All That Vibrates On The Surface, Soul, Love, Passion, Life. Sculpture Is Thus The Art Of Hollows And Mounds, Not Of Smoothness, Or Even Polished Planes." To This End, His Detailed Modeling And Energetic Poses Are Strikingly Vigorous And Lifelike. Even One Hundred Years After They Were Created. Bronze Dimensions With Marble Base: Height 36 X Width 12 inches. Weight: 43 Lbs.
