About the Item
An original work of art by artist Raffaello Romanelli, this stupendous piece draws inspiration from renowned sculpture “The Thinker” by Rodin (“Il Pensatore” in Italian). Capturing a young man ruminating, a timeless symbol of human reflection, this magnificent oeuvre was handcrafted by observing a live model and simultaneously working on a clay sculpture, which is the first step to create bronze artwork of this kind.

The Thinker - Auguste Rodin (1840 -1917). Cast made by Fonderie Alexis Rudier in 1904. Transfered to the musée Rodin in 1922.
When conceived in 1880 in its original size (approx. 70 cm) as the crowning element of The Gates of Hell, seated on the tympanum, The Thinker was entitled The Poet.

The pose of this figure owes much to Carpeaux’s Ugolino (1861) and to the seated portrait of Lorenzo de’ Medici carved by Michelangelo (1526-31). While remaining in place on the monumental Gates...
