Features: This book is neither an academic work nor an archaeological or architectural essay; it is simply an artist's passionate and fervent expression of beauty. Rodin connects the nature, people, religion, and art of France, demonstrating to us wholeheartedly that the French Renaissance did not trample upon the various principles of Gothic art but rather adopted and carried them forward. The ideas he presents in the book also profoundly influenced the development of art in the 20th century.
