Living pictures project: Thiago Antonio & Filipe 8C "The Thinker".























        The sculpture named (at first the poet) The Thinker, it's a bronze sculpture maid by Auguste Rodin.
Rodin was born in Paris on november 12, 1840 and he died on november 17, 1917. Auguste was french and he is famous because of his sculptures. The Thinker is one of his best artworks, it was sculpted in bronze in 1902. This sculture represents a man thinking and meditating about maybe his own life or about other things, and that’s the interesting part because you need to think what is he thinking and than you make a big reflexion. In our opinion this is the best part of the artwork, to exchange places with the thinker and imagine what would you be thinking if you were the thinker.
This sculpture is really reflective, sad or frustrated at the same time. Its strengths are the reflexion power and its weakness maybe the melancholy at the same time. So our final impression  of this artwork is that it has a great power of reflexion and thinking about your life and at the same time it can be really sad and melancholic.
