The Thinker, Paris

The Thinker, carved roughly four centuries later, is almost as well known as Michelangelo's David. They all have a realistic sculpted body in common. However, it would be unjust and superficial to limit the beauty of this monument to what the eyes see. Rodin created significantly more beautiful and lifelike sculptures. The Thinker is not like those folks.

The Thinker, sitting on a stone, immersed in meditation, sums up the essence of man's existence: cogito, ergo sum. Our masterpiece, a lyrical portrayal of the human mind, is one, of the most distinguishing deed that has helped humans climb above all other creatures on this planet. People who can see beyond this beautiful effigy of a man come to Paris to pay their respects to the Thinker. You may have seen several copies, but it is only after standing in its shadow that you will understand why it is one of the twentieth century's most renowned masterpieces.
