"Outstanding Biography About a Great 19th-Century Scuptor" according to Mary Wilbur. I read this book last year after seeing the last half of the Isabelle Adjani/Gerard Depardue film on television. The film didn't give Claudel her due. She was a very tough minded woman trying to make her mark in the intensely competitive and 99.99 percent male French nineteenth-century art world. Aside from that her chosen (from childhood) form. An extraordianry achievement Amazon Customer Camille Claudel, by Cal Poly Professor of French Odile Ayral-Clause is an extraordinary achievement a decade in the making. A scholarly study of the French sculptress who was a disciple and mistress of Rodin and the subject of a popular 1989 film, Odile's book combines original research, vivid writing, and engaged though balanced judgement. Cam. Margaret Thorell said An Artist, Lost and Found. Camille Claudel was a woman consumed by her own art, destroyed by nineteenth century French society, neglected by her family, especially her beloved brother Paul, and if known at all, remembered as the lover of Auguste Rodin.

Camille went mad and spent her last 30 years in an asylum. Ayral-Clause, a professor of French and the humanities at California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo, cites original documents and
Illustrated with personal family photographs, this is an intimate and moving tribute to an artist whose life and work have, until now, been misinterpreted and undervalued.. After she crumbled under the combined weight of social reproof, deprivations, and art world prejudices, her family had her committed to an asylum, where she died 30 years later. The book draws upon much unpublished material, including letters and photographs that confirm the brilliance of her sculpture, clarify her relationship with Rodin (who did not exploit her, but, in fact, supported her work throughout his life), and reveal the true story of her confinement in a mental institution. Camille Claudel (1864-1943) was a gifted 19th-century French sculptor who worked for Auguste Rodin (1840-1917), became his lover, and eventually left him to gain recognition for herself in the art world.
