Published to accompany an exhibition of sculptures and drawings by two of history's greatest artists, this book examines the pivocal carer of Auguste Rodin (1840 - 1917) and his acknowledged debt to Michelangelo (1475 - 1564). Esseays by prominent scholars in Italy and the United States discuss Rodin's early departures from the idealized figures of traditional academic sculpture as well as his revelational trip 1876 to Italy, which was still alive with celebrations honoring the four hundreth anniversary of Michelangelo's birth. In Florenze, Rodin visited the newly opened Casa Buonarroti and the Medici Chapel, where for the first time he was confronted with the full force of Michelangelo's work. Discussions of individual works are accompanied by full-color illustrations.
