钢琴家的左手-奥古斯特·罗丁
-François Auguste René Rodin (1840–1917) was a 法国艺术家 sculptor generally considered the founder of modern sculpture. He was schooled traditionally and took a craftsman-like approach to his work. Rodin possessed a unique ability to model a complex, turbulent, and deeply pocketed surface in clay. He is known for such sculptures as The Thinker, The Kiss, The Burghers of Calais, and The Gates of Hell.
In 1900, the critic Gustave Kahn wrote, \"Rodin is the sculptor of hands, raging, tensed, arched, damned hands\". There is no doubt that Rodin attached more importance to this part of the body than any other. Fascinated by the expressive power of isolated hands, he studied them unceasingly, accumulating in his studio numerous studies in clay or plaster, in which the sensitivity of the modelling vies with the verisimilitude of the gesture.
Through hands, Rodin expresses the full range of human emotions, from anxiety to suffering, from resignation to despair. As revealing as the face, on their own they can sometimes symbolize a form of human activity, such as this Hand of a Pianist which seems to run over an imaginary keyboard with nervous energy.
材质 :Celestial sphere, two large brass fretwork hemispheres joined at the equator with two sets of rings. The first set consists of five parallel horizontal rings representing the Equator, Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, and both polar circles as well as vertical colures and meridians intersecting both poles and crossing the equator at 30 degrees. The second set consists of six rings intersecting the equatorial poles at an angle of 23.5 degrees – this angle would allow the now-missing inner terrestrial sphere to consistently point to the north and south equatorial poles of the celestial sphere. Placed atop this set of 17 rings are the 48 Ptolemaic constellations and two non-Ptolemaic ones. The Lynx (LE LYNX) located between the Great Bear and Leo and the constellation of Eridanus, depicted as a naked female figure, were both added later. The planetary symbols and series of stars up to five magnitudes are engraved on the figures of each constellation. The celestial sphere is mounted on a graduated brass meridian ring held in place by two recesses on the horizon ring. One face of the meridian is stamped with a scale of 360 degrees, and an hour-ring and index is mounted at the North Pole. A set of four brackets support the horizon ring with engraved acanthus leaf decoration and foliage, which terminate in scrolls with a pierced opening holding a peg attached to the horizon. The upper face of the horizon features an inner scale of 360 degrees divided into 12 signs for the zodiac labelled in Latin and depicted with its symbol. An outer scale depicts the Julian calendar with the names of the months stamped in Roman capital letters. The first point of Aries coincides with the 11th of March. The 12 winds are engraved at the outer edge as blowing figures. The sphere is supported by a chased-brass circular base with four grotesque human figures amongst arabesque decoration. The sphere rests on a cylindrical marble stand with minor chips consistent with age. 尺寸 :86 × 33 × 33 cm Other
