About this product
Product Information
This comics biography of one of the greatest sculptors who ever lived is done with the collaboration of the Rodin Museum and includes a preface by its director. It views his life through the eyes of the three women who shared his life for good or for bad. One was his lifelong on and off companion, the other two his muses, one of which was Camille Claudel, a well-recognised sculptor herself. Rodin's work was revolutionary in conveying exceptional passion, transcending the stone. Here's how that happened.

Reviews
"Do you know the sculpture of the seated, naked man, hunched over, resting his chin on his hand? The Thinker? This graphic biography tells the story of its creator's artistic life. French sculptor Rodin was born in the late nineteenth century, and his passion for art took him from poverty and obscurity to riches and international notoriety. The connective tissue of this work is constructed around the three women in his life who supported his art, inspired his oeuvre, and positioned him for the effective marketing and promotion of what he produced. Rodin's phenomenal successes were hard won over time, and his most intimate relationships were direct casualties of his art. Alessandra's art, full color yet muted and heavy with earth tones, lends a credible air to the early twentieth-century Paris being depicted. Generous notes at the end of the short tome further contextualize Rodin's encounters as well as the highlights and pitfalls of his life.
