There is no shortage of beauty in this world, but the eyes that find beauty.
This famous saying comes from the world famous sculptor Rodin.
Auguste rodin (1840— 19 17) is a French sculpture artist. He used texture and modeling to express his works to a great extent, which had a great psychological influence. He is regarded as the greatest realistic sculpture artist in19th century and early 20th century. Rodin's position in the history of European sculpture is just like that of the poet Dante in the history of European literature. Rodin, together with his two students, Mayor and Boodell, is known as the "three pillars" of European sculpture. He deserves to be a great sculptor.
Auguste rodin was the most influential French sculptor in19th century. He worked hard all his life and dared to break through the shackles of the official academic school and go his own way. He is good at absorbing all excellent traditions and has a deep understanding of the beautiful, vivid and contrasting techniques of ancient Greek sculpture. His works build a bridge between modern western sculpture and modern sculpture. Rodin is an epoch-making figure in the history of western sculpture. Europe is a master of traditional sculpture art for more than two thousand years, and also the creator of new sculpture art in the 20th century.
A bigger blow followed. Rodin's beloved sister Mary entered the monastery because of lovelorn love. Two years later, her weak spirit and body could not bear the frustration and cold life, and she died of illness. Rodin's spirit completely collapsed under this double blow, and he resolutely embarked on the road of his sister and became a monk. However, Rodin's strong body provided him with endless desires, among which the desire for creation ignited an uncontrollable flame in an artist's heart, which made Rodin, who was equally devout to God and art, fall into inner contradictions and pains. Emma, the kind and wise abbot, saw Rodin's thoughts from his depressed expression. He created conditions for Rodin to have the opportunity to paint and carve. When he saw that Rodin was really talented, he persuaded Rodin to return to the secular world, continue his sculpture career and "serve God with art". This encouraged Rodin. With a soothing and grateful heart, Rodin made a statue for Dean Emma in the monastery. This statue shows that Rodin, 23, has the insight, skills and skills to become a sculptor.
