3D modely ARTLa France at The V&A, LondonTitle La France Artist Auguste Rodin (1840 - 1917) Date About 1904 Medium Bronze Dimensions Height, 64 cm Accession # Museum no. A.39-1914 Credit Given by the artist, Inscribed A Rodin on the drapery at the front of the bust and 'Alex Rudier/Fondeur, Paris' on the lower left corner of the background The face is a likeness of the gifted sculptress, Camille Claudel (1864-1943), Rodin's pupil, assistant and lover. Originally it was called Byzantine Empress and Bust of a Young Warrior, but when Edward VII visited Rodin's paris studio in 1908 it was renamed St. George (St George being the patron saint of England). In 1914, when Rodin presented the work to the V&A in honour of French and British soldiers in the war, he patriotically renamed it La France. Rodin's innate awareness of how sculpture occupies the space it inhabits is highlighted by the niche that frames the head. Originally, the head faced to the right, but it was reversed in 1908. By framing the head against a niche set in a vertical sheet of bronze, he controls the viewpoint and the way his work occupies space. náhodný výběr modelů
