Description

Auguste Rodin

Seminal and highly lauded French sculptor (1840–1917) whose works, including the iconic ‘The Kiss’ and ‘The Thinker,’ earned him a place among the most influential artistic figures of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. ALS in French, signed “A. Rodin,” one page, 4.5 x 7, personal letterhead, March 23, 1903. Letter to “Mademoiselle Cimino,” a close collaborator, Emilia Cimino, who was promoting Rodin’s work in the United States. In full (translated): “I am present with you in New York and hope the weather is now fine. If I judge from the tempests in Meudon your trip must have been terrible. Thank you for your help and friendship and do prepare your conferences later.” In fine condition, with a bit of scattered light toning. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
