Auguste Rodin Eternal Idol Sculpture Statue
Item No. 6010SM
Reproduction after Museum Original
Throughout Rodin's career, the couple was a constant source of inspiration, enabling him to express all
nuances of tenderness, passion and sensuality. Along with The Kiss, Fugit Amour, the Eternal Idol Statue
is part of one of the most famous groups of sculpture inspired by the theme of love and romance.
Auguste Rodin chose to portray in this group the domination of woman over man who kneels before her in
an attitude of adoration, and seems to pay an almost religious homage to an indifferent divinity. It should
be noted that the first title for this work was The Host, clearly indicating this notion of devotion. The
composition of the group accentuates its psychological aspect; the deliberate vertical line formed by the
woman's arms and head contrasts with the diagonal of the man's body and increases the impression of
his dependence and respect.
Made of cast stone.
Dimensions: 11 x 6.5 x 4
Weight: 5 lbs
