It was not created as an isolated figure but as part of the monument known as The Gates of Hell which the State ordered from Rodin in 1880 for the future Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris, a work which was only cast in bronze after his death.The influence of Italian Renaissance sculpture, particularly that of Michelangelo, is obvious in this figure which also owes something to certain 19th century masterpieces such as Ugolin by Carpeaux, of which Auguste Rodin owned a copy. The statue's powerful anatomy reflects such an intense inner concentration that the work has become a universal symbol of human thought.Each reproduction requires great expertise and draws on the skills of the Rodin Museum's teams and craftsmen. It is from the official moulds from the museum's collections that the most accurate resin reproductions are made. They are then hand-patinated to give it the appearance of bronze, plaster or marble.Finally, they are validated and checked by the Musée Rodin’s curators to ensure that they comply with moral rights.Reproductions come with an explanatory note about the history of the work.The Thinker is a bronze sculpture by Auguste Rodin that depicts a seated man. The sculpture was originally created to represent Dante Alighieri, the Italian poet who wrote The Divine Comedy, as he contemplated his epic poem. Rodin's sculpture was part of his work The Gates of Hell, which depicted Dante leaning forward to observe the circles of Hell while meditating on his work. However, Rodin eventually separated the figure from The Gates and exhibited it on its own in 1889, giving it the title The Thinker. Rodin considered the figure to symbolize the creative human mind's internal struggle.
