The work explores the life and artistic journey of the renowned sculptor Auguste Rodin, particularly focusing on his time at the Hôtel de Biron, which became a significant site for his creative endeavors. The narrative juxtaposes Rodin's work with the hotel’s rich history, detailing how the space transformed from a decaying relic into a vibrant artistic haven.  At the start of the book, the author sets the stage by describing the Hôtel de Biron, outlining its historical significance and the various characters who occupied it before Rodin arrived. The text introduces the reader to the hotel's previous inhabitants, such as wealthy bourgeois and notable figures of the 18th century, highlighting the contrasting histories tied to Rodin’s artistic pursuits. Coquiot paints an evocative picture of the hotel's ambiance and how it served as a backdrop for Rodin's prolific work, emphasizing the intersection of the past's opulence with the artist's burgeoning genius within its walls. The beginning ultimately establishes a rich context for appreciating Rodin’s legacy in relation to this iconic location.
