it gives me a weird sensation to watch this. this afternoon i’ve seen a
little exhibition of rodin’s works in milan and the “slavic woman”
appearing on the right from minute 1:31 was among them.
*Rare Film of Sculptor Auguste Rodin Working at His Studio in Paris (1915)

*’The footage was taken in 1915, two years before Rodin’s death. There are
several sequences. The first shows the artist at the columned entrance to
an unidentified structure, followed by a brief shot of him posing in a
garden somewhere. The rest of the film, beginning at the 53-second mark,
was clearly shot at the palatial, but dilapidated, Hôtel Biron, which Rodin
was using as a studio and second home.’*
Gorgeous piano performance of the Chopin 2nd Piano Concert. It is always
good to know who the artists are. Who is the pianist, the conductor and
the orchestra ? Thanks
hi Andrew yes, at 1.27 he looks at the viewer and his nervousness makes him
so human – not now the great modern sculptor very pleased you’re liking
these films – they are about on YT but i couldn’t resist putting them all
together as i have the doco they originally came from. lots of other
footage of singers, politicians, composers and so on too. cheers!
Wonderful to see this. I loved the very short clip at 1:27. You are doing
us all a great service by tracking down all these clips and making them
available. Great work.
hi supertortoise thanks very much – support is really appreciated! it’s
encouragement like yours that makes it so easy to begin again – thanks
again. 🙂
hi pediatrapaola curiously i’m invigorated by the prospect of tidying up
the videos and improving them and then uploading them again thanks for your
support – it’s really been a help and had been much appreciated by the way,
if you can think of a curse to put on a certain person, let me know
immediately – LOL!
