Rodin, Adam and drawing of a nude with crossed handsAlbert Elsen explained that "Drawing did not serve Rodin as the blueprint for his sculpture.” "Drawing and modeling were distinct yet mutually supportive and cross-fertilizing in his art. Seeing and feeling the model's profiles through the point of his pencil and hands gave conviction to his fingering of the clay."
