I don't believe I've ever seen this Rodin before -- either in person or as a photo.

The man was an expert at capturing struggle in human flesh. Wow!

Indrani said...

Lot of talent there.

Aisha said...

Really talented, yes. I love how he painted the background.

That's a wonderful Rodin and I like the distortion. Carver Wordless

Maybe you could nip over to Stanford [or is it Berkely?] they have so many in the grounds it's quite breathtaking.

Hi Jams -- I don't remember this one? If it is in the museum or out in the garden I don't remember it.
Does it have a name?
Happy WW/WT! Thanks for the visit.

Distorted and he looks like he should appear in a sci fi novel/movie.

I don't know who Roden is. Did he have a dog? Arf, bark!!

chartao said...

I think I quite like the distorted version, perhaps more than the original. Rodin was modern for his time, but this is definitely more so.

Raven said...

I love the distortion. Makes it look like a painting. Very cool and interesting photo.

Jientje said...

You made a work of art out of a work of art, Jams!

Amazing Gracie said...

Looks like I feel!
Great work, though. Just quit spying on me, please!

Thanks everyone

This fellow is a bit creepy, Jams! Gives me the heebie jeebies.

lareine said...

i like the effect --- a one-point perspective (i'm not really good in art but it's like when you take a photo of railroad and the image tends to convert at a single point)... and like jientje said, it's art in an art :)...

Interesting post! Happy WW.

Rodins are neat!

Robin said...

I like what you've done to it. Very creative.

I've spent many happy hours in the Rodin musuem.

Oh Jams...this is one excellent distortion! Great job. Fantastic W W as always.

For some reason only known to blogger programmers, the photos aren't showing up today. I posted mine, and I also left links from Photobucket where I posted them as backups.

Hope you can find time to visit. Happy W W.

The distortion gives it such depth and an eerie sensation. Nice work.
