Studio Handmade Young Woman Clay Bust after Auguste Rodin

Studio vintage clay bust of a young woman after French sculptor Auguste Rodin. Handmade, the defined texture in the clay throughout gives suble form and movement as the young girl tilts her head to the sunlight as her graceful curved neck invites. A gathering of flowers holds her hair back from her face. Marked 'Rodin' on the bottom. Solid sculpted clay. Weight 2lbs. Good vintage condition. Spots of glaze loss throughout. Base on the backside has areas of clay loss. See images. Overall, presents beautifully. A stunning classic accent for any interior. Dimensions 5.5 inch height X 4 inch depth X 2.5 inch width François Auguste René Rodin (1840 – 1917) was a French sculptor generally considered the founder of modern sculpture. Rodin possessed a unique ability to model a complex, turbulent, and deeply pocketed surface in clay. He modeled the human body with naturalism, and his sculptures celebrate individual character and physicality.
