Rodin’s studio was a library of voices. Dante, Baudelaire, and Rilke colored the clay.
Three Anchors
- Dante: architecture for the Gates.
- Baudelaire: modernity and correspondences.
- Rilke: attention as a form of love.
| Author | Rodin’s Take |
|---|---|
| Dante | Moral topography |
| Baudelaire | Urban feeling |
| Rilke | Seeing anew |
Words become matter when attention deepens.
Read a poem in the garden; then look again.
