Framed Prints
Framed Print of The Thinker, c. 1880. Creator: Auguste Rodin (French, 1840-1917)
The Thinker, c. 1880. Rodin originally conceived The Thinker as a depiction of the Italian poet Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) sitting in the upper center of a monumental sculptural doorway titled The Gates of Hell (below). Inspired by Dantes description of a journey through the underworld in his epic poem The Divine Comedy (about 1320), The Thinker contemplates mankinds fate while gazing at a host of damned figures writhing in anguish below. Stripped of clothing, the figures rippling muscles convey an inner, animating life force symbolic of mental activity or creative effort. The figure leans forward, as if ready to spring from his perch, yet seems simultaneously caught in the inaction of deep thought. Rodin produced independent versions of The Thinker, first in this original size and later in a monumental version. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © Heritage Art/Heritage Images
