Introducing our exquisite bronze sculpture inspired by Auguste Rodin's renowned masterpiece, The Thinker. This particular rendition presents a skeletal interpretation, adding a unique twist to the original concept. Originally named The Poet, Rodin initially envisioned the statue as a representation of Dante atop a door, deeply contemplating the scene below. However, it is believed that Rodin intended the figure to evoke a more universal and profound reflection. Our sculpture captures The Thinker as a man immersed in profound meditation, engaged in a compelling internal struggle. The contemplative posture, with hand resting upon the chin, right elbow leaning on the left knee, and a crouching stance, bestows upon the statue a sense of thoughtful observation. Crafted for individuals who relish introspection and intellectual exploration, it serves as a timeless reminder to ponder twice before acting. The meticulous craftsmanship of this sculpture is evident in its intricate skeletal structure. Admire the captivating details, such as the undulating lines of the spine and the exposed ribcage, which add a touch of realism and depth. Painstakingly created using the renowned "Lost Wax Method," this masterpiece is entirely handmade from 100% bronze. To enhance its elegance, it is mounted on a luxurious marble base, a perfect complement to its artistic allure. This exceptional piece is proudly signed by the acclaimed artist, Milo. Indulge in the beauty and thought-provoking nature of this bronze sculpture, a testament to artistic excellence and the eternal quest for intellectual enlightenment.

FAQ's

What material are your sculptures made out of?

All of our sculptures are made from100% hot cast bronze, and handmade in the ancient lost wax casting method. We never sell cheap cold cast sculptures or resins!

What is the difference between hot cast and cold cast bronzes?

Hot cast bronze is created by pouring a molten metal mixture into a mold.  Before the metal can be poured, our artists must first create the mold on a medium such as clay, rubber, or wood.  Each mold allows for a limited number of pours, and therefore a limited amount of sculptures can be created in any given round of production before the mold is destroyed and the artist must create a new mold.

Cold cast is actually made from resins and plastics which are painted over. They are cheaper, lighter, and less durable.

Generally speaking, hot cast bronzes are very time consuming and limited in their production, whereas cold cast resins can be mass produced and are inexpensive to create.
