Though most readers already may be familiar with Rodin's sculpture, they won't want to miss the gorgeous full page reproductions of hundreds of the artist's watercolors and line drawings. The wide ranging portfolio - in terms of color, shape, texture - is sure to impress. The book itself is of very high quality and the reproductions are excellent. The editors have added a helpful and interesting discussion of this aspect of Rodin's work that will enhance your enjoyment of these drawings.

This book is certainly a treat for anyone who appreciates Rodin's work. Rodin's drawings are truly unique, and are well reproduced in this book. I would also recommend the Klimt and Schiele collections by this publisher as well.

Love the book, something I have been waiting for for years since most focus on his sculptures. I gave it a four rating only because I would have liked a larger format. The roughly 9.5" X 6" doesn't open flat and also it would have been nice to have larger sized reproductions. I was aware of the size and liked it anyway since it is certainly a good price for the number of illustrations. Definitely worth buying.
