Large Softcover. Zustand: Near Fine to Fine. Auguste Rodin, the pre-eminent sculptor of the 19th century, is generally considered the progenitor of modern sculpture as the art has developed in the 20th and 21st centuries. Known for many major works such as "The Burghers of Calais," "The Thinker," and "The Gates of Hell," Rodin also courted controversy in his exploration of sexuality and eroticism. This book, originally published in hardcover in 1992 in conjunction with an exhibition of Rodin's work, provides an in-depth examination of Rodin's discourse on the erotic in his drawings and sculpture over his career. First Printing, First Edition Thus. About 7 3/4 x 9 5/8 inches, 186 pages in heavy card wrappers showing a detail of "The Kiss" on the front cover and "Danaid" on the back against a black background and white lettering. The text contains a foreword by Rainer Crone and two essays by Crone and David Moos, as well as a select bibliography and list of the 75 plates, many in full color. The biographical essay also includes many black & white photos of the artist at work and with friends and family. The frontispiece is a full page photo of Rodin examining an antique sculpture. The text is complete, clean and unmarked, no creasing, tearing or stains, not remaindered. The wrappers show only some light rubbing, no scratches, no bumping or chipping. A collectable copy.
