Elsen, In Rodin's Studio: A Photographic Record of Sculpture in the Making (Cornell University, 1980), pl. 43 NOTE From the late 1890s to 1903, Rodin worked with Eugène Druet to document Rodin's sculpture. Druet, the owner of the bar across the street from Rodin's studio, was an amateur photographer whom Rodin discovered had a keen eye for capturing his work. The two collaborated for a number of years, and in Rodin's retrospective of 1900 at the Exposition Universelle, there were seventy-one photographs by Druet on display. This partnership lasted for a brief period of time, ending in 1903 due to artistic differences.

Druet...', inscribed 'A Rodin' and annotated 'F34' in the negative, numbered in pencil on the reverse, 396 by 298mm Eugene Druet was an amateur photographer who owned a bar near Rodin's studio. Rodin had developed a keen interest in the expressive potential of photography and entered into a brief working relationship with Druet in the late 1890s.
