Seminal and highly lauded French sculptor (1840–1917) whose works, including the iconic ‘The Kiss’ and ‘The Thinker,’ earned him a place among the most influential artistic figures of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. ALS in French, signed “Rodin,” one page, 4.5 x 7, personal letterhead, no date, but postmarked April 1909. Letter to Miss Emilia Cimino. Rodin invites a close collaborator to come to see him with the famous American dancer Loïe Fuller. In fine condition, with a central horizontal fold, some scattered light creases, and a uniform shade of toning. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Fuller was a great collector of Rodin’s works and was highly influential in introducing the artist and his sculptures to the American public. Rodin referred to her as “an innovative American artist a woman of genius, with all the resources of talent whom I have admired for a number of years.”
