ENGRAVING LITH AUGUSTE LEVEILLE PORTRAIT OF VICTOR HUGO IN PROFILE AFTER RODIN Signature A Leveille lower right and stamp lower left Ste normande de gravure n°90.Auguste-Hilaire Léveillé born in Joué-du-Bois on December 31, 1840 and died in Paris on April 12, 1900 is a French engraver, painter, draftsman and illustrator. Born in Joué-du-Bois on December 31, 1840, Auguste-Hilaire Léveillé was a pupil of the engravers Jean Best (1808-1879) and Laurent Hotelin (active between 1836 and 1884). He used all the engraving processes during his life, with a preference for woodworking. Auguste Rodin (René François Auguste Rodin), born in Paris on November 12, 1840 and died in Meudon on 17 November 19172, is one of the most important French sculptors of the second half of the 19th century, considered one of the fathers of modern sculpture. Heir to centuries of humanism, Rodin's realistic art is a culmination, a cross between romanticism and impressionism, whose sculpture is modeled by the struggle between form and light.
