René François Auguste Rodin
Auguste Rodin was a master French sculptor who lived from 1840-1917. The sense of movement and expression in his work, combined with real creativity, have created lasting pieces that immediately speak to the observer.
These are several of his sculptures:
The Burghers of Calais
The Kiss
The Thinker. A good example how a tremendous work of art can become a cliche.
Monument to Balzac
The Cathedral
Rodin Museum in France
