EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the bronze sculpture of Father Eymard, created by the renowned artist Auguste Rodin in 1963. The bust captures the essence of this French Catholic priest, who played a significant role in Rodin's life. With a furrowed brow and stern expression, Father Eymard's features are beautifully carved with meticulous attention to detail. Dressed in his clergy cape, the saintly figure emanates an aura of severity and solemnity. The patinated surface adds depth to the sculpture, highlighting every contour and emphasizing its timeless quality. Father Eymard's frowning countenance reflects his dedication to his vocation as well as his profound spiritual contemplation. Rodin was deeply influenced by Father Eymard after experiencing personal loss, leading him to temporarily abandon art. It was through their friendship that he found solace and encouragement to return to his true calling as an artist. This portrait serves as a testament to their bond and mutual respect for one another. Father Eymard himself is revered not only for his religious contributions but also for being canonized as a saint. His gaunt appearance with angular cheekbones further emphasizes the sacrifices he made throughout his life in service of others. This remarkable photograph from Fine Art Finder allows us a glimpse into both Rodin's artistic prowess and the profound impact that individuals can have on each other's lives.
