Auguste Rodin. (№ 225971)

Quote Explanation: The response of the great French sculptor Auguste Rodin to a question from his disciples, in what, actually, is the art of the sculptor. Perhaps Rodin was just repeating the words of one of the ancient sculptors, as similar expressions occur in Dionysius the Areopagite and Michelangelo. So, the famous phrase of Michelangelo: "I mean by sculpture the art that is in the power of subtraction".
