We are thrilled to introduce an exceptional piece of art from the renowned master of modern sculpture, Rodin Auguste. A meticulously crafted, reduced (23cm) copy of one of his most notorious works known as 'The Thinker' (French: Le Penseur). This particular size is categorised as 'big' and our 2 photos magnify its superiority in size compared to the average scale. Within our prestigious collection, we proudly offer four different sizes of this coveted sculpture. In addition to the 'big', we also stock a 'small' and 'the largest' variant.

'The Thinker', standing as a symbol of human intellect and contemplation, was sculpted between 1880 and 1882. The original masterpiece is housed in the distinguished Rodin Museum in Paris. Just as thought-provoking is a bronze copy stationed at the sculptor's final resting place in Meudon, a suburb of the illustrious French capital.

Who is the man behind this acclaimed creation? Rodin Auguste, born as Francois-Auguste-Rene (1840 - 1917), is an eminent French sculptor who is celebrated for revolutionizing the sphere of sculpture. His innovative approach to the form and his nuanced understanding of naturalism breathed new life into the artistic realm. Beyond his sculpting prowess, Rodin was an accomplished draughtsman and his prodigious influence continues to resonate within the sculpting community.
