Abstract
The Henry Barber Trust owns two sculptures by Auguste Rodin, one of which is a life-size cast of his celebrated work, The Age of Bronze. Under what circumstances did this sculpture join the collection at the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, and how is it displayed at the gallery? Using previously unpublished archival material, this article explores these questions and offers new perspectives on the Barber's sculpture collection.
