Sculpture "Das Wahern Age" (1876), large version in artificial bronze
"The Bronze Age"—originally titled "The Vanquished"—was Rodin's first bronze sculpture. The decisive influences of his trip to Italy, during which he encountered works by Michelangelo and Donatello, are clearly evident. At the Paris and Brussels Salons of 1877, this sculpture caused a scandal due to its pronounced realism.
Original: Bronze, Musée Rodin, Paris / Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Created in 1876.
The version is an ars mundi museum replica, hand-cast in polymer art casting with a bronzed surface.
François-Auguste-René Rodin is considered a brilliant innovator of sculpture and, alongside Praxiteles, Michelangelo, Cellini, and Canova, is one of the greatest sculptors of all time. His sculptural oeuvre is so extensive that no complete catalog of his works has yet been published. It would certainly encompass several hundred pages.
