Photostory Leonardo da Vinci

`LOVE


I chose the Sculpture called "The Kiss"By a french artist called Auguste Rodin. Its a marble sculpture made in 1889 and is exposed at Musee Rodin in Paris. The first version was made in Bronze as a part of the portal called the Gates of Hell. The sculpture is called oriniginally, "Francesca Rimini", who falled in love with her husband's young brother. It's a betrayal story. The couple's lips never touched which suggest that their love was interrupted when her husband discovered the betrayal. I saw this sculpture at the Museum and never forgot how it impressed me because Rodin showed a scene of sharing love in a sentimentalist way without any erotism appeal.
