Gerald Cantor Foundation in Los Angeles, home to the largest private collection of Rodin works in the world. Rodin planned his monument as a nude, but then draped Balzac in the monk's robe he frequently wore when writing, thereby abstracting the author's body into a concealed force without specific articulation and focusing attention on the monk's head.
