Sobre a escultura
The Man with Broken Nose is the most important work preserved from Rodin’s early career. It is a portrait of Bibi – a general workman employed in the workshop. The original head was damaged by cold weather, but Rodin submitted it in its flawed condition to the Paris Salon in 1865, where it was rejected. Rodin preserved the sculpture carefully and later made a version in marble and several casts.

Na vida de Auguste Rodin
A vida inteira1890s–1900s
Young sculptors in Rodin's studio
His income let him hire gifted young sculptors, among them Antoine Bourdelle, Charles Despiau, Jules Desbois, François Pompon and Aristide Maillol. Constantin Brancusi left after two months, convinced that nothing grows under a big tree.
1900s
Portraits of the famous and the rich
Rodin began to receive regular commissions for portraits; his clients included Bernard Shaw, Gustav Mahler, Georges Clemenceau, the Argentine president Sarmiento, the chemist Berthelot and the philanthropist Bertha Palmer. Clemenceau was displeased: he thought the portrait looked like a “Mongol general”.
1903

After the death of James Abbott McNeill Whistler, Rodin was elected president of the International Society of Painters, Sculptors and Engravers, largely thanks to Albert Ludovici.
