Auguste Rodin (1840–1917) was not only the world's greatest sculptor, known for such works as The Thinker, The Kiss, The Hand of God, and dozens of others, but also one of the most remarkable personalities of modern times: an artist who outraged contemporaries with his disturbingly unfinished monuments; a sensualist who shocked France with his scandalous relationships; and a friend to the most gifted writers and artists of his day. Beautifully written and illustrated, Rodin is the definitive biography of a man whose influence on sculpture was as profound as Michelangelo's.

Weidenfeld and Nicolson

This illustrated history traces the evolution of the guitar from the mouth bow to the Fender Stratocaster. Hittites, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Moorish minstrels and medieval troubadours adopted and reinvented the guitar. Romantic virtuosos like Sor and Giulinai further developed its identity, while contemporary masters like Segovia, Bream, and Williams have taken the guitar to the concert stages of the world. Blues, jazz, and rock-and-roll have each added distinctive qualities to the technique and look of both player and instrument. In his fascinating panorama of guitar history, Frederick V.Grunteld has brought together musical and art scholarship - there are more than 200 paintings here by such figures as Velasquez, Vermeer, Watteau, Goya, Manet and Ricasso - and provided a literary and visual concert for every music lover. Frederic V.Grunfeld, who trained in both music and art at the University of Chicago, was a critic whose work apeared in numerous publications. He contributed several volumes to the Time Life Great Music Series and wrote the books Music and Recordings and the recently acclaimed Rodin - a biography.
