Camille Claudel (1864-1943), French sculptor who was known as 'Rodin's muse', but who many assert was a more accomplished talent, and who was committed to an asylum for 30 years despite her apparent sanity #womensart

If picture is of Rodin's statue, "The Thinker," don't put "Rodin's statue The Thinker." If someone doesn't what that is, it's completely useless.

The Surprising Origin Story of Rodin’s ‘The Thinker’

If it weren't for a 14th-century poem, we would never have had one of the world's most iconic sculptures.

AUGUSTE RODIN. Ny Carlsberg Glyptothek. DER DENKER. A muscular nude male figure sits hunched on a rock, chin resting on his hand, elbow on his knee, in deep contemplation. The sculpture stands on a round pedestal against a dark background.

Welcome ROSEWOOD. We love gardens, fine dining, travel, and our family.
The Jules Verne inside the Eiffel Tower knows how to delight clients. Service was impeccable. Book well in advance. Rodin's home in Paris has lovely gardens. This photo captured The Thinker, my redhead, the Eiffel Tower, and Napoleon's golden dome. We enjoyed a month in Paris.

hi is this the right place for street rhymes
Lloyd Hardy's incredible rap:"I was just thinking, letting it sink in.. That I could write a funky rhyme while you were blinking. I could drop syllables while you're inhaling, I can win and win again all while you're failing. If you want a rap battle then you better take a seat. hyme like a scientist but from the street #Rap #Battle #TheThinker #Rodin" with a picture of LL Cool Lloyd next to Rodin's Thinker

The Burghers of Calais by Auguste Rodin
In the Musée Rodin's garden, Auguste Rodin's sculpture, The Burghers of Calais, depicts six men walking toward death, embodying acceptance rather than despair. Clothed simply, they bear the weight of their fate with dignity, presenting a moment of quiet acknowledgment and inner reckoning, transcending mere sacrifice to highlight the power of consent.

Man with the broken nose http://collection.nationalmuseum.se/eMuseumPlus?service=ExternalInterface&module=collection&objectId=28236&viewType=detailView
The Man with Broken Nose is the most important work preserved from Rodin’s early career. It is a portrait of Bibi – a general workman employed in the workshop. The original head was damaged by cold weather, but Rodin submitted it in its flawed condition to the Paris Salon in 1865, where it was rejected. Rodin preserved the sculpture carefully and later made a version in marble and several casts.

Ovid's Metamophoses http://kokoelmat.fng.fi/app?si=B+I+140
In the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, people were increasingly starting to think about their identities. Thoughts of gender and sexuality appeared in literature and art as much as they did for example in psychology or medicine. The sculptures in Auguste Rodin’s La Porte de l'Enfer depict love between women. What is interesting about the work is the fact that in late nineteenth century France, the female homosexuality that it takes as its subject was perceived as being extremely modern, even fashionable, but was largely described by means of stories from Ancient Greece and Rome.

Researchers tried to shift that thinking style with short primes, things like word puzzles or pictures of Rodin's The Thinker. Every attempt failed. People in the primed groups scored no differently on the CRT than people in the control groups. 3/8

interesting literal prior art re: computational creativity, also an amusing detail
"(Versions of Aaron still generate output, but anything done after Cohen’s death in 2016 is not considered authentic.)”
So like Rodin’s casters doing unauthorized casts after the sculptor passed.
