CAMILLE CLAUDEL
Not a Poem, but a Story Poem
Camille Claudel,
beautiful, genial and born in the wrong age,
on December 8,1864,
born in Fère-en-Tardenois, France,
died on October 19,1943, Montfavet, Avignon,
France
brilliant child prodigy
sculpted since her 5th year.
Education: Académie Colarossi, France
Parents: Louise Athanaïse Cécile Cerveaux, Louis Prosper
Brother: Paul Claudel
the sculptress was born in the wrong age,
too early for her genial talents
private teaching especially for ladies,
prohibited to show her sculptures in public,
she was put in an asylum despite her being not insane,
no any relatives paid her a visit,
her younger brother Paul regarded her
as a hindrance for his career.
He suffered being her younger brother
since she was a genial woman.
Despite these situations,
she got the honourable prize in public.
unimaginable for me that he is very religious
and so much envy for his beautiful and genial elder sister,
he kept her silent for 30 years in an asylum.
Can we imagine that?
Poor beautiful Camille,
outbursting talent,
genial and yet no future.
There was in the late 1900 a revival of her art,
till now.
I have seen her film biography
