The museum houses the world's greatest collection of Rodin's sculpture and drawings like Les Bourgeois de Calais, Le Penseur, Balzac, La Porte de l'Enfer, Ugolini et fils are exhibited in the garden. Indoors are works in marble like Le Baiser, La Main de Dieu, La Cathédrale - those two perfectly poised. There is something particularly fascinating about those works, such as Romeo and Juliet and La Centauresse, which are only, as it were, half-created, not totally liberated from the raw block of stone.
There are also paintings by Renoir, Monet and Van Gogh. |
