The original ‘Thinker’ was sculpted by the great French artist Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) and was first exhibited in Paris in 1904. Since then, this image of a powerful man in contemplation has become a symbol of Rodin himself. While he admired many famous artists, his strongest influences came from viewing the works of Michelangelo during a trip to Italy in 1875.
