Camille Claudel (1864-1943)

This Persée et la Gorgone or Petit Persée, executed between 1903 and 1905 by Camille Claudel, emerged at a sale in Caen, whetting more than a few appetites.

Two outstanding lots illuminated the sale in Bordeaux; a moving bronze by the tormented sculptress, and the triumphant effigy of a great lady portrayed by Rigaud, finally preempted.

Camille Claudel made this emotional portrait just after losing her child and renouncing motherhood.

From one of Camille Claudel’s most famous groups, The Age of Maturity, this Implorer remains one of the artist’s most prized works at auction.

From October 10 to 16 the museum in Nogent-sur-Seine invites the handicaped public to discover its cultural offerings, through group visits. Sensory tours will also be offered throughout the weekend to enhance visitors' experience. 

Camille Claudel’s moving, expressive The Waltz is one of her most famous works. The whirling bronze will be accompanied by 18th-century sculptures in Mandelieu.

Made when she separated from her mentor Auguste Rodin, this moving sculpture was intended for her important group L’Âge mûr (The Mature Age).

Used for personal meditation and channeling divine energy, these sacred paintings took the lion's share, but a bust by Camille Claudel also weighed in.

The museum inaugurates its new exhibition space with the French artist's small model Implorante - its first acquisition in 10 years. It becomes the only public institution in the UK to house a work by Camille Claudel, who is also the first female sculptor to enter its collections.

Tsuguharu Foujita and Camille Claudel modernized the classics, from mythological characters to the image of the Madonna.
