Here we go again!

Musée Rodin

This is the view from the second floor of the Hôtel Biron, looking over the garden of the Rodin Museum.

I loved the Camille Claudel room* and seeing Rodin's busts of Renée Viven and Anna de Noailles. Th took a great set of pictures of the Burghers of Calais and Ch enjoyed using the telescope to see all the details on the Gates of Hell. We had a snack at the café in the gardens and then walked for a long time... all the way to the rue de Rivoli where we got a bus home. (This had nothing to do with me leaving my map at home, of course.)

*Though I do still find it perverse that so many of her works are exhibited here and not grouped in a more "neutral" (and honorific) national museum like the Musée d'Orsay.
