Si l'on ne connaît qu'un seul nom de sculpteur, c'est celui de RODIN qui vient à l'esprit. Il n'en est aucun qui, plus que lui, ait connu la gloire. Pourtant, on l'a laissé mourir de froid au cours de l'hiver 1916-1917.
Quand on a, pour la première fois, posé la question : " Qu'est-ce que la sculpture moderne ? ", on en a exclu RODIN, relégué dans le symbolisme : c'était en 1986, lors d'une exposition à Paris.
Qui était ce génie inclassable, que sa liaison avec Camille Claudel a récemment mis en lumière, tandis que grâce à l'Amérique et aussi au musée qui porte son nom, l'ombre majeure du personnage revient jusqu'à nous ? Quel fut l'itinéraire de ce fils d'inspecteur de police, demeuré un tâcheron jusqu'à ses trente-six ans ?
Osons regarder RODIN dans son ampleur et son intimité, depuis l'érotisme des quelque huit mille dessins qui scandent son oeuvre jusqu'au travail à la chaîne de son atelier. Nous nous le devions : Le Penseur, sa plus célèbre sculpture, ne fut-elle pas offerte par souscription publique au peuple de Paris ?
PIERRE DAIX qui, de Monet à Picasso, a renouvelé les biographies des grands sourciers de l'art moderne, a réussi là une enquête pleine d'ouvertures inattendues, et un de ses livres les plus neufs.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
