Highlight the home or garden with our Life Size Saint John the Baptist Bronze Statue standing 76” high. Beautifully detailed and an Auguste Rodin reproduction, this marvelous sculpture of the preaching Saint John the Baptist captures the Saint as a vigorous figure in motion. When Auguste Rodin cast the Saint John the Baptist sculpture, he would request his model, an Italian peasant named Pignatelli, walk repeatedly about the studio so he could capture the spontaneity of the young man's movements. In doing so, Rodin”s study and representation of natural motion challenged the conventional thinking that existed in the nineteenth century sculptural practices that conformed to an accepted canon of suitable, classical poses. It isn’t a surprise then that his sculpture of St. John was seen as a milestone in the development of modern sculpture.
