The man with a broken nose, by auguste rodin (1840-1917). This bust is the portrait of a poor man from the neighborhood where rodin lived, known under the name of bibi. Although the cartel indicates "1903 (?)", it is probably a bronze print of the plaster made in 1865, offered at the salon of the same year and refused. Sand casting by alexis rudier in 1916. Rodin museum, in paris.
