EDITORS COMMENTS
Auguste Rodin (1840-1917): The Man With the Broken Nose (Mas de l'Homme Brisé, or Mask of the Man With the Broken Nose) This bronze sculpture, titled "The Man With the Broken Nose," is a masterpiece by the renowned French sculptor, Auguste Rodin (1840-1917). Created between 1862 and 1863, this sculpture is now proudly displayed at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark. Rodin, a pioneering figure in modern sculpture, was known for his innovative approach to the human form and his ability to capture the essence of emotion and age in his works. "The Man With the Broken Nose" is a prime example of his exceptional talent. The sculpture portrays an aging man with deep wrinkles and a prominent, broken nose, which adds to the overall sense of character and history. The title of the sculpture is believed to be derived from a legend about Rodin's inspiration. According to the story, Rodin saw a laborer with a broken nose and was so moved by his face that he decided to create a sculpture based on the man's features. However, the true origin of the title remains a mystery. This sculpture, which is considered a contemporary work from the 19th century, is a testament to Rodin's unparalleled skill in capturing the human form in all its complexity and beauty. The intricately detailed wrinkles, the expressive face, and the sense of age and history all contribute to the sculpture's enduring appeal. "The Man With the Broken Nose" is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art and sculpture, and a reminder of the incredible talent and vision of one of France's greatest artists. This powerful and evocative work continues to captivate audiences at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark, and around the world.
