Claudel made this out of bronze in the year that her relationship with Rodin began. It is a beautiful sculpture. The intimacy between the man and woman are clearly portrayed. The man is fully formed and nude from thr back. Initially, I thought the woman was wearing a dress, but she kind of just grows out of the ground. I love the attention to detail, and how the viewer sees a different image when looking closely versus afar.
