Rodin made this famous creation in 1881. The thinker was the first work by Rodin which was publicly exhibited. On 21 April 1906 it was set up in front of the Pantheon during a fierce political and social crisis, which made the statue a socialist symbol. In 1922 the statue and its pedestal were brought over to the garden of Hôtel Biron, the current Rodin museum. Another piece can be found in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen. Another piece is found at the tomb of Rodin in Meudon.
