Camille Claudel was an immensely talented yet grossly underappreciated French sculptor known for her figurative works in bronze and marble. She died in relative obscurity in a mental hospital, but later gained recognition for the originality and quality of her work. The subject of several biographies and films, Claudel is well known for her sculptures including The Waltz and The Mature Age. The national Camille Claudel Museum in Nogent-sur-Seine opened in 2017 and she was a longtime associate (and lover) of sculptor Auguste Rodin and the Musée Rodin in Paris has a room dedicated to her works. Sculptures created by Claudel are also held in the collections of several major museums including the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, the Courtauld Institute of Art in London, the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C., the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles.
