Rodin

Finally after living in Paris for over a month, I went to my first museum. Since it was such a beautiful day on Saturday, I decided to go to the Rodin Museum because part of it has a garden where one can walk amongst the sculptures. The Rodin Museum is one of the smaller ones, but even still, you can spend days there. The sculptures are absolutely amazing. He is so good at making them look like they are in motion and tells a story with each one. The muscle detail and the way he positions body parts is incredible. You can spend days there because it takes so long just to figure one statue out and you don't really have time to give all the pieces enough attention in one outing. Anyway, I posted a couple pictures of some of his sculptures (and a pretty one of the Tower Eiffel ;*p)...
