In 1902, the French sculptor Auguste Rodin visited Prague and Moravia. This trip, associated with his largest exhibition abroad at the time, it was important not only for the sculptor himself but also for the indelible traces he left at the place he visited. It was significant for the generation of painters and especially sculptors of the time, for whom it helped to clarify the path towards a modern artistic direction, while it also foreshadowed the future orientation of the art scene towards French art. On the other hand, from what the artistic and social elite of the time considered important to show to this important visitor, we can also deduce essential information about the priorities and character of the era. |
