Abstract

Auguste Rodin

Cox, Kenyon | November 22, 1917 issue

add to cart   close window

The death, on November 17, of French sculptor Auguste Rodin-- certainly the most conspicuous, if not the greatest, of modern sculptors-- lends a peculiar timeliness to this latest spedmen of the voluminous literature that has already gathered about his name. It is the work of an extreme partisan, a thick-and-thin adorer who can see no fault in her hero, but it is valuable on that very account in explaining the point of view of the artist and it gives a fuller account than is to be found elsewhere of certain episodes in his life. Rodin was born in Paris, November 14, 1840 and was therefore a few days over seventy-seven years of age when he died.
