A substantial vintage monograph on Auguste Rodin, published in Paris by Arted, Éditions d’Art in 1967, on the 50th anniversary of the artist’s death.
Written by art historians Ionel Jianou and Cécile Goldscheider, the book presents Rodin’s sculpture through an extensive selection of black-and-white plates, accompanied by biographical and critical text, a chronology, exhibition history, bibliography, and a detailed catalogue of his sculptures.
The authors consider Rodin not only as a major figure in nineteenth-century sculpture, but as an artist whose ideas and approach to form anticipated important developments in modern art.
This large-format edition is especially desirable as a complete example with both the original illustrated dust jacket and the original publisher’s slipcase.
