Everyone is invited to come and make its own judgment."Sotheby's marble Rodin sculpture of embracing lovers has never appeared at auction before and is worth its pre-sales estimate of $8- 12 million dollars, says specialist Jeremiah Evarts.Jeremiah Evarts, Senior Vice President Impressionist and Modern Art at Sotheby's, says:"Right at the time he conceives of the model, he meets Camille Claudel, the great love of his life who will eventually go insane when he leaves her. But this is the moment when they first meet, and you can see Rodin celebrating that love as he opens the figures out to the viewer."The sales will kick-off on Sunday, May 8th and continue throughout the week.
