"Eve" by Auguste Rodin

Paper Summary:

The paper focuses on the client's thoughts in relation to the line, form, shape, color, intensity and view of the sculpture of Eve. In this paper, each element is discussed and analyzed through the author's viewpoint, with one sculpture from a museum exhibit as a reference.

From the Paper:

"Auguste Rodin's sculpture, "Eve" is the study of this analysis ("Auguste", n.d., p.1). For the purposes of contemplating light, form, line, shape, space, texture and color, the photograph displayed on the Joslyn Art Museum website will be considered ("Auguste", n.d., p.1). There is a smooth flow of line shown in the sculpture. Beginning at the bottom of the form with her left ankle, the line takes the viewer on an endless path of gentle curves. This is true even at points in the form that appear to be straight. An example would be the apparent straight line from Eve's knee to her hip on the left side of the statue. Although this section of the sculpture appears straight, the line turns out of the knee and begins a long curve into the hip."
