Delphi Complete Works of Auguste Rodin (Illustrated)
The founder of modern sculpture, Auguste Rodin was a late nineteenth century pioneer, whose work changed the course of the history of art. His greatest achievement was the restoration of the role of ancient sculpture, showing that a modern artist could capture the physical and intellectual force of a subject, while freeing the artistic medium from the repetition of traditional patterns. Rodin’s enduing popularity is often ascribed to his emotion-laden representations of ordinary men and women and his ability to find beauty and pathos. Masterpieces such as ‘The Kiss’ and ‘The Thinker’ are widely used outside the fine arts as symbols of human emotion, transcending the sculptor’s medium and helping us to understand the fundamental essence of being a human.

Delphi Complete Works of Henri Matisse (Illustrated)
One of the leading figures of Modernist art, Henri Matisse was a master painter, sculptor and printmaker. He is celebrated as both an orchestrator of tonal harmonies and a draftsman capable of distilling a form to its full essentials. He earned the name “the King of Colour” due to the boldness of his visual experiments and for how he liberated the expressive use of colour to reflect modern sensibility. His collage cut-outs, including the groundbreaking ‘Jazz’ prints, established an entirely new medium that would change the history of art forever.
