罗丹雕塑《巴尔扎克头像》习作高清图片

作品简介

罗丹为《巴尔扎克纪念碑》创作了五十余件研究习作，其中大部分是头部雕塑。这件作品展现了艺术家从自然主义肖像向最终定稿《巴尔扎克纪念碑》上那抽象面具风格的过渡。雕塑中，巴尔扎克紧蹙的眉头、扁平的鼻梁和深陷的眼窝，透露出这位作家对人类心理的忧郁洞察。或许罗丹在巴尔扎克身上看到了自己——他们都是灵魂炽热之人，既是狂热的艺术收藏家，也是贪恋爱情的多产艺术家。

Rodin made more than fifty studies for the Balzac monument, and the majority are heads. This one represents the artist’s transition from more naturalistic portraits toward the abstracted mask that adorns the final study for the Monument to Balzac. Here, Balzac’s agitated brow, pug nose, and deeply gouged eyes evoke the author’s melancholic insights into the human psyche. Perhaps Rodin identified with Balzac. Both were driven souls, avid art collectors, voracious lovers, and prolific artists.
