This is a story of love, loss, and incredible coincidences told through the life of Mirielle Thibodeaux, who perseveres against all odds. Having survived a horrible adolescence, she loses her three-month-old baby Etienthe youngest of her four childrenwhile fleeing from the German air attack on France in 1940. Her children had become her life but one by one, for different reasons, they all leave her. Life continues despite the loss and her only strength is the hope that one day they will return to her. Will she live long enough to see them again? Suffering for the children doesnt make her life heroic. It is merely life.
With more than 350 pictures, many never before seen, Rodin reveals in great beauty and detail the genius of the man known as the father of modern sculpture. The stories of Rodin's sculptures are told through each stage of development from plaster casts to the glorious end result"--
La venue au musée d'Orsay des chefs-d'oeuvre de la Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek est donc apparue comme une occasion privilégiée de comparer les trois versions en marbre du 'Baiser', chose que Rodin lui-même n'eut jamais la possibilité de faire.
This publication takes a new look at how works of sculpture were created, the circumstances of their discovery, and the historical and political background.
