Rodin, published 1903

Photogravure
Edward Steichen
American, 1879-1973
 

 
While visiting Rodin’s studio, Edward Steichen photographed this double portrait of sorts: the artist Rodin in the foreground in profile, with his sculpture of Victor Hugo behind him. Steichen also photographed Rodin with The Thinker and later combined the negatives of the two photos to create the image of Rodin with both sculptures.
