O rzeźbie

Auguste Rodin modelled The Sirens before 1887; the bronze in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, was probably cast between 1900 and 1920. Three nudes form a close group, with two seated figures supporting another that bends over them. In a London exhibition in 1958 the sculpture bore the title The Three Graces. Its height is 43.2 centimetres.

Cały życiorys

  1. 1885

    Camille Claudel: assistant and lover

    From 1885 Claudel worked as an assistant in Rodin's studio and posed for him, and soon they became lovers. The affair lasted nine years, and Rodin did not break with Rose Beuret, who knew her role as “the other woman”.

  2. 1889

    Rodin and Monet at the Georges Petit gallery

    “The Burghers of Calais” was the main event of a joint exhibition of Rodin and Claude Monet: thirty-six sculptures by Rodin and seventy paintings by Monet.

  3. 1898

    The scandal over “Balzac”

    The monument's showing in 1898 caused a storm: the Société des Gens de Lettres rejected it, the press ran parodies, and Monet, Debussy and the future premier Clemenceau signed a manifesto in Rodin's defence. Rodin repaid the commission and moved the statue to his garden; he never completed another public commission.

  4. 1898

    Parts from Camille Claudel

    Rodin never gave up Rose Beuret, his companion of the lean years and the mother of his son; in 1898 he and Claudel parted. A few years later Claudel suffered what is called a nervous breakdown, and her family confined her to an institution for thirty years.

  5. 1900

    Rodin's pavilion at the World's Fair

    The French government gave him an entire pavilion: a retrospective of 136 sculptures and 14 unfinished works showed “The Gates of Hell” for the first time. The exhibition brought sales of sculptures to museums around the world worth about 200,000 francs.
