With ninety-six illustrations. The first edition was published by Insel Verlag in 1913. The selection of images follows the edition from 1949.

The two-part work, created in 1903 [read: 1902] and 1907, is not an art-historical study, but the confession of a poet who speaks of the artist's experience and lets the reader participate in this experience. Rilke's reflections, which grew out of the personal connection with Rodin, go beyond the individual case into the essence of artistic creation in general


Mit sechsundneunzig Abbildungen. Die Erstausgabe erschien 1913 im Insel Verlag. Die Bildauswahl folgt der Ausgabe von 1949.

Das zweiteilige Werk, 1903 [lies: 1902] und 1907 entstanden, ist keine kunstgeschichtliche Studie, sondern das Bekenntnis eines Dichters, der vom Erlebnis des Künstlers spricht und den Leser an diesem Erlebnis teilhaben läßt. Rilkes Betrachtungen, die aus der persönlichen Verbindung mit Rodin erwachsen sind, gehen immer wieder über den Einzelfall hinaus in das Wesen künstlerischen Schaffens überhaupt: [...].
