 Better than expected. Jan 17, 2011
By Luke
I've been looking for a small duplicate of Rodin's "The Thinker" statue, but I didn't care to break the bank and spend over $100. For the price, this is actually quite a solid piece. I was anticipating an inferior quality of material, but that isn't at all the case. (I've never ordered a "powder cast" product before.) It actually does feel like metal and has a substantial degree of accompanying weight to it. I would describe it as surprisingly adequate. Very true to its description. At 9.75" tall, this adds the perfect touch to my home office desk - both in its decor and inherent symbolism.

Great value for a beautiful statue Mar 23, 2011
By mamaoftwo
The quality and beauty of this statue is quite pleasing for the price. An excellent piece to display on a mantle or small table. I was also very pleased with the seller and shipping...a seamless transaction.

By Divata
I would recommend everyone who appreciates art to have his or her own copy of the Thinker! The carving detail is exquisite and this statue looks very expensive.
A Beautiful Sculpture with A Beautiful Price Aug 19, 2011
By A. Melton
""The Melton""
About this sculpture: This model of Rodin's "The Thinker," is a beautiful bronze powdered case of an iconic sculpture. It gets all the detail of the body and the tree stump in the sculpture. The material is a great quality, providing a sturdy sculpture, with stunning visuals.
Did you know?
The thinker, in "The Thinker" is Dante from the Divine Comedy?
Who is this sculpture great for?
- Historian lovers
- Art lovers
- Literature lovers (who knows that it is Dante)
- Teachers (that is who I purchased the item for)
- I purchased this item for my art history teachers. They have teaching this subject for over 20 years (combined) and could not believe the quality of the sculpture. They thought I spent hundreds on it!
A note about sculptures.
When a sculpture is casted from bronze, it is made in a shell first. Most likely, this sculpture was casted from scaled down version of that cast. What does that mean for you? You actually have a finely crafted sculpture, made the same way ones in museums are. How cool is that!
This sculpture is so beautiful, and at a really affordable price. It comes highly recommended from. I just finished a year in a European Art history course and and I am an art lover. I've been to museums such as MOMA, The Met, and the John Ringling Institute.
