Likely Rodin's most famous piece sits in the gardens of Musee Rodin. Well, one of them anyway. If he were to look up, straight across from him on the other side of the grounds is Rodin's Gates Of Hell, which has a smaller version of this piece on it. And then there's the second copy of the Gates Of Hell at Musee d'Orsay, which also has one of these on it. Glad I got this when I did. The last time I was there it was covered in scaffolding and two women were up there cleaning him off. In any case, neither Owen Wilson, nor Dobie Gillis, nor Maynard G. Krebs were around when I snapped this one. Paris, France; September, 2013.
