Painting Description
"Victor Hugo, De Face (Delteil 7)" is a notable sculpture by the French artist Auguste Rodin, created as part of a series of works depicting the esteemed French writer and political figure Victor Hugo. Rodin, renowned for his expressive and innovative approach to sculpture, embarked on the project to capture Hugo's likeness following the author's death in 1885. This particular piece, referenced as "Delteil 7" in the catalogue raisonné of Rodin's work compiled by Loys Delteil, is one of several studies that Rodin produced in his quest to honor Hugo's legacy.
The sculpture is characterized by Rodin's signature style, which often involved a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, as well as a focus on the emotional and psychological state of his subjects. "Victor Hugo, De Face" captures the writer in a frontal view, emphasizing his contemplative gaze and the distinctive features that made Hugo an instantly recognizable figure of his time. The work reflects Rodin's deep respect for Hugo, not only as a literary giant but also as a symbol of the creative and rebellious spirit.
Rodin's studies of Victor Hugo were part of a larger commission for a monument to be placed in the Panthéon in Paris. Although the final monument was never completed to Rodin's satisfaction, the studies themselves, including "De Face (Delteil 7)," have gained acclaim for their artistic merit and the insight they provide into Rodin's creative process. Today, these works are considered significant contributions to the portrait sculpture genre and are studied for their embodiment of Rodin's innovative techniques and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects.
The "Victor Hugo, De Face (Delteil 7)" sculpture is an important piece within the oeuvre of Auguste Rodin and serves as a testament to the enduring influence of Victor Hugo on French culture and beyond. It remains an object of study for art historians and a cherished example of Rodin's mastery in rendering human emotion and character in three-dimensional form.
