Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) was a French sculptor, the creator of "The Thinker" and other well-known masterpieces. His characteristic style and virtuoso technique made him the leading sculptor of his time and placed him at the vanguard of modern art. As such, he was regularly sought after for large-scale commissions and busts of people of international renown such as George Bernard Shaw, Victor Hugo and Gustav Mahler. Rodin remains one of the few sculptors widely known outside the visual arts community.
