  • Descrição: According to Octave, the convictions of the past have been lost, with nothing to replace them: "All the evils of the present come from two causes: the people who have passed through 1793 and 1814 nurse wounds in their hearts. [...]The Stonebreakers (1849, formerly at the Gemäldegalerie, Dresden, destroyed in 1945) startled bourgeois visitors to the Salon of 1850-51 with a palpable, factual representation of threadbare indigence and bone-grinding manual labor that seemed light years away from the Romantic preoccupation with imagination and feehng. [...]grandiose was Rodin's self-image, that he equated his own work not with truth to nature, but rather with divine creation. [...]The Hand of God (1898; fig. 7) holds a piece of sculpture that mimics the idiom in which Rodin characteristically worked: entwined lovers partially engaged in a rough-hewn block. "Romanticism and Classicism," quoted in Hulme, The Collected Writings of T. E. Hulme, 61-62. [...]Robert Rosenblum aptly quotes Hulme's term "spilt religion" at the opening of Modern Painting and the Northern Romantic Tradition. 55.
