Bronze sculpture "The kiss" (27 cm) by Auguste Rodin, reduction

Auguste Rodin 1840-1917-The most outstanding sculptor of the transition phase from the 19th to the 20th century François-Auguste-René Rodin is seen as an extraordinary innovator of the sculpture and, along with Praxiteles, Michelangelo, Cellini and Canova, is one of the most important sculptors of all time. His artistic work is so extensive that no complete catalog of his works has been published to date. He would certainly fill several hundred pages. Rodin attended the school for applied art because he was rejected three times at the Paris Art Academy. Rodin was a passionate admirer of beauty. He was particularly fascinated by the human body, which he repeatedly held in his "Vérité fugitives", at the fleeting moment of the moment: lively, pulsating beauty, which took a timeless shape under his creative hands. Everything that created Rodin with his hands radiates immense vitality and unbridled power.
