See Rodin's Long-Lost Sculpture In Madison This Weekend

MADISON, NJ — Before it beings its stint in a Philadelphia museum, you can see the long-lost Auguste Rodin sculpture in Madison Borough Hall, where it has spent the past 85 years.

Public viewings of Rodin's "Napoléon Enveloppé Dans Son Rêve (Napoleon Wrapped in his Dream)" will be held on Oct. 21 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Oct. 22 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for any locals hoping to check out the multi-million dollar work of art.

After the Madison viewings, it will head to the Philadelphia Museum of Art as part of a Rodin exhibit, where it could remain for over a year. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City has also expressed interest in borrowing the sculpture.

Owned by the Hartley Dodge Foundation, there are no plans to sell the sculpture, which is worth between $4 and $12 million dollars.

The sculpture sat unassumingly in Madison Borough Hall for nearly 85 years, lost to the art world. A particularly observant art student began investigating the bust's origins in 2015, and the world's foremost Rodin expert flew from Paris to Madison to confirm its authenticity that year.
