In-depth Leisure Trip in France: Rodin Museum

❣️ Auguste Rodin (November 1840 - November 1917) was a French sculptor. His major works include "The Thinker," "The Age of Bronze," "The Burghers of Calais," "Balzac," and others. 👍 Rodin's creations had a significant impact on the development of modern European sculpture, and he, along with his two students Maillol and Bourdelle, were hailed as the "three pillars" of European sculpture. 🧐 The Rodin Museum in Paris was once Rodin's residence, where he lived and worked from 1908 until his death. Before his death, he donated all of his works to the state, and subsequently, France acquired the property and converted it into the Rodin Museum. 📖 In the front and back gardens of the museum, large-scale works from various periods of Rodin's career are displayed, such as "The Thinker," "Hugo," "The Kiss," and "Eve on the Rock." The main building of the museum is a two-story house filled with small sculptures. 📝 On the second floor, there are detailed explanations of the sculpting process, and one can admire famous paintings collected by Rodin, such as those by Renoir, Monet, and Van Gogh. Additionally, there are sketches and watercolor paintings. The collection of the Rodin Museum is second only to the Louvre Museum in Paris. #France #Paris #Travel #Rodin #Sculpture #Art #Cultural Site Sharing #The Thinker
