Guided tour of The Rodin Museum

What a better way to visit the Musée Rodin than with a licensed guide and Art Historian, passionated by sculpture?

We’ll head to the Hôtel Biron, where Rodin rented a few rooms first, turning it into a workshop and meeting place in Paris. After a couple years, the Hotel Biron was threatened to be distroyed but he manage to become the owner.  A year before he died, by three donations made in 1916 and accepted by the law of 22 December 1916, Auguste Rodin donated all his works to the French State, together with the artistic property rights attaching to them, under one conditions, to create a Musée Rodin in the Hotel Biron. And that’s why we’re here today !

Going through the different steps of this life we will discover his sculptures but also his collection of antique sculptures along with its collection of paintings by Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet.

After the visit of the museum, we’ll stroll throught the garden that contains many of his famous sculptures like The Thinker, and The Gates of Hell, in an natural setting.

Come and join me on a tour of the Rodin Museum, to learn more about his life, his work and his legacy !
