Labour of love: the restored Rodin Museum Paris reopens
It is appropriate that the image of Rodin's The Kiss was chosen as the visual emblem of the completed restoration of the Rodin Museum, Paris. This has been a passionate labour of love for the Rodin Committee, patron Iris Cantor and the French state. The Rodin Museum is beloved by local and international visitors for its location, magnificent 18th century architecture, the accessibility of Rodin's works and its garden, presided over by The Thinker.
