It was a perfect L.A. day (low 80s) yesterday, so I really felt for the poor Rodin (pictured below) who was all wrapped up in a blanket when I happened by. He was preparing for his descent by crane into the almost-open B. Gerald Cantor Sculpture Garden and was covered for protection. Thankfully, "The Shade"—great name for a sculpture in a Los Angeles garden—was in place and unburdened of his wraps within fifteen minutes.
