Like so many o...Glad you are back home safe, Eric. <BR/>Like so many others, I cannot get enough of Rodin, so don't hold back, bring it on!<BR/><BR/>Janet, if you are referring to this sculpture here on this post, then yes, Monica is correct, it is Ugolino (and his sons), and here is something about this sculpture:<BR/> "Rodin goes at once to the depths of the whole tragedy. The youths have fallen to the ground, and Ugolino, seeing them so, and feeling the full terror of his situation, throws his own emaciated carcass down and crawls over the body of his offspring like a beast benumbed with rage and famine... The impression made by this being is so forcible that it seems more like the half-conscious response of an unburied corpse to the trumpet of the resurrection... It is the horror of the door" [Bartlett] <BR/><BR/>But when I opened your referred link, I saw the photo of Rodin's "Call to Arms", or Fierce Angel as Flickr refers to it. And this is from when Rodin modelled Project for a Monument to the Defense of Paris in 1879 when a competition was held for a memorial to the defense of Paris during the Franco-Prussian War. In this sculpture, the Genius', or Spirit of War, wings push downward, beating the air, and the warrior, head thrown back, sinks slowly to the ground. This Angel, is screaming her fury and tries to awaken the warrior, who has fallen in battle to save Paris.<BR/><BR/>Bon weekend a tous! Et pour les americains ici, have a great Labor Day weekend. Enjoy yourselves. Dance, as Jeff would suggest to you. Me, I'm off to the mountains to hike some more of the Appalachian trail. <BR/><BR/>LoraineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-19825142096788936302007-08-31T16:45:00.000+02:002007-08-31T16:45:00.000+02:00Bonjour Eric !Je souhaitais juste vous informer qu...Bonjour Eric !<BR/><BR/>Je souhaitais juste vous informer que je vous ai cite dans dans mon billet du jour pour BlogDay (http://www.blogday.org/fr.htm).
