專家說明

This work will be included in the forthcoming Auguste Rodin catalogue critique de l'oeuvre sculpté currently being prepared by the Comité Auguste Rodin at Galerie Brame et Lorenceau under the direction of Jérôme Le Blay under the archive number 2004-487B.

The hands of the Bourgeois de Calais were modeled as excessively large and expressive, in order to evoke the feeling of tragedy and resignation. This hand, belonging to Pierre or Jacques de Wissant, is anatomically perfect, in particular the cascade effect from the index finger to the pinky finger.
