Auguste Rodin and Camille Claudel

French

The collaboration between Auguste Rodin and his student, muse and lover Camille Claudel is well attested. The artists produced each other’s portraits in the 1880s. Even more poignantly, Claudel’s famous sculpture L’Âge Mûr (also known as La Destinée or Le Chamine de la Vie) can be interpreted as a biographical reconstruction of her bereavement at Rodin’s decision to leave her for his ageing, life-long companion, Rose Beuret.
