EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled "Auguste Rodin" by Eugène Carrière, dates back to 1897. The French artist, known as Eugène Anatole Carrière, masterfully captured the intense gaze and distinctive facial hair of the renowned sculptor, François Auguste René Rodin. The portrait is a lithograph in black from two stones on china paper laid down on cream wove paper, showcasing Carrière's exceptional skill in the lithotint technique. The image is a testament to the Fin de Siècle era, a period of cultural and artistic transition in France. Rodin, a leading figure of the modernist movement, is depicted with a deep concentration, his piercing eyes directly engaging the viewer. The artist's beard, a symbol of wisdom and maturity, frames his face, adding to the overall sense of authority and presence. This portrait is now part of the impressive collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, a renowned art center and gallery. It is a valuable addition to their extensive prints and drawings collection, providing a glimpse into the lives and works of two of the most influential artists of the 19th century. The portrait invites us to contemplate the power of art and the enduring legacy of these visionary creators.
