Vintage August Rodin Bronze Sculpture ~ The Thinker
Vintage patinated bronze sculpture of August Rodin's "The Thinker". Classic copy of the famous French sculpture measuring 9" tall on a multicolored marble base. The bronze is cemented to add weight to it, and it can be removed from the base. The Thinker has a beautiful verdigris patination covering the entire figure which is seated on a earth colored rock. The sculpture is roughly cast as was the original which adds to its rustic appeal. The vintage sculpture has the signature of Rodin incised along with the Rudier foundry mark. This was instigated by the original foundry through their own volition as none were ever signed by Rodin himself.
This would make a great decorative item for an office, library or art room and would make an excellent birthday or arts graduation gift. Not sure when this dates to but most likely the 1960's according to the previous owner.
