The man who defined French sculpture in the late 19th century was passionate, demanding, and sensual, and his personality lives on in his work. He created a new sculptural language, realistic and physical but charged with emotion. Here his public and private life are woven together with the story of his success. 210 illustrations, 150 in full color.
