Excerpt from On Art and Artists
All the biographical facts recorded in this book have been obtained from original sources and largely from the eminent sculptor himself. The book contains a hitherto unpublished account of Rodin"s relations with Robert Louis Stevenson and Henley, together with selected letters bearing on these. Special attention has been devoted in separate chapters to the various masterpieces that have rendered the French artist so celebrated throughout the world, one treating of the famous Balzac statue. The book is illustrated with authorised photographs of all M. Rodin"s best-known work, and also with portraits of the sculptor at various periods of his life.
