Auguste Rodin

Sobre la obra

With ninety-six illustrations. The first edition was published by Insel Verlag in 1913. The selection of images follows the edition from 1949. The two-part work, created in 1903 [read: 1902] and 1907, is not an art-historical study, but the confession of a poet who speaks of the artist's experience and lets the reader participate in this experience. Rilke's reflections, which grew out of the personal connection with Rodin, go beyond the individual case into the essence of artistic creation in general
