Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) left his mark on an entire century of sculpture. With a total of 20 works, the Dresden Sculpture Collection had until 1912 created the largest Rodin collection in Germany. It is, perhaps, also the most unusual collection, consisting, in addition to bronzes and one marble work, above all of plaster sculptures. Rodin appreciated the esthetic effect of plaster. Also, he had a strong interest in the then still young medium of photography, which he used as an opportunity to make his works known, as well as for their interpretation. As from 1896, photographs showing Rodin's works from unusual perspectives and in atmospheric presentations were taken in cooperation with the photographer Eugène Druet. These photographs are also part of the Dresden collection.

Condition: Gut. 79 S. The Dresden Skulpturensammlung was the first German museum to purchase works by the sculptor. This was thanks to the Director at the time, Georg Treu (1843-1921). By the time the last work was purchased in 1912, the Museum owned a total of 20 works, thus boasting the largest Rodin collection in Germany - and perhaps also the most unusual, since the collection not only includes bronzes and one marble sculpture but consists primarily of works sculpted in plaster. Furthermore, the renowned museum director also purchased photographs by Eugène Druet because he was aware of the significance of these images for the perception of Rodin's sculptures.
