Camille Claudel's collection
To definitively free herself from comparisons to Rodin, in the 1890s Camille Claudel chose to explore a more intimate, personal avenue of unique, miniature works. Alert, she scrutinized, observed and then staged snapshots of day-to-day life: her “Life Studies” that she described to her brother Paul, at the time stationed in the United States, in late 1893 (Société des Manuscrits des Auteurs Français). She took pleasure in drawing inspiration from the insignificant, which she then transcended, lending the works a certain universality.
