巴爾札克頭像 Head of Balzac
1891年羅丹由作家協會(Society of Men of Letters「Société des Gens de Lettres」) 委任他創作大文豪巴爾札克紀念碑雕像。羅丹從事巴爾札克紀念碑長達七年時間。他做了至少五十個研究雕塑，一些根據巴爾札克的寫實擬真作品和一些主觀抽象作品。大多的研究都是巴爾札克的頭像，因為羅丹希望透過臉部表情來強調巴爾札克的崇高智慧。在這件雕塑，巴爾札克的特徵在不同光線角度下被誇大，顯得特別明顯，加深觀者印象。 這座《巴爾札克頭像》表達了人物對社會的諷刺。巴爾札克是法國一位作家，為寫作和生計深深困擾。他屢屢失敗，但從未放棄過繼續寫小說的念頭。而作家死後才獲得了成功。他偏好諷刺意味的作品，是當時文藝寫實派的先驅之一。 In 1891 Rodin received a commission by the Society of Men of Letters (“La Société des Gens de Lettres”) to create a monument to their founder, French writer Honoré de Balzac. Rodin worked on the Monument to Balzac for seven years. He completed at least fifty studies, some based on Balzac's actual appearance and others more subjective and abstract. Most of the studies were of Balzac's head, as Rodin felt it more important to emphasize the heads of people of such high intellect. He completed at least fifty studies, some based on Balzac's actual appearance and others more subjective and abstract. Most of the studies were of Balzac's head, as Rodin felt it more important to emphasize the heads of people of such high intellect. In this version, Balzac's exaggerated features reveal distinct expressions when viewed from varying conditions of light and perspective. This bronze head of Honoré de Balzac seems to portray the satirical view he had of society. Balzac was a French author obsessed with writing and food. Balzac failures never faltered his drive to continue to write novels and novelettes. Balzac real success came after his death. French author Balzac was one of the creators of realism in literature, with a bent for satire.
