Auguste Rodin, statuaire : l'oeuvre et ses aventures, Rodin dessinateur, caractères et projets, commentaires
A French monograph on the sculptor Auguste Rodin, written by Léon Riotor and published in Paris by L. Vanier in 1903, with a section on Rodin's drawings. The single plate is a loose ink sketch of a rearing horse and rider, signed in the corner, showing Rodin's quick, scribbled line work. A designer might take from it the energy of gestural sketching, with the figure built from fast overlapping strokes and large areas left open.
