Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of Auguste Rodin's "Eternal Idol" (1889), now beautifully rendered in bronze. This masterful sculpture pays homage to the profound love shared between two souls, capturing the essence of a carnal embrace that transcends the physical realm. The sculpture embodies the worshipful devotion one feels for their beloved, elevating them above all else, akin to a deity, in an eternal and ceaseless bond. Rodin's clandestine lover and fellow sculptor, Camille Claudel, often served as a muse for his creations. The inspiration behind "Eternal Idol" reflects the intensity of their connection, as expressed in Rodin's words: "My very dearest down on both knees before your beautiful body which I embrace," as conveyed in a heartfelt letter to Claudel. This emotional depth is intricately woven into the bronze masterpiece, offering viewers a profound glimpse into the artist's complex emotions and relationships. Crafted with meticulous precision using the antiquated lost-wax casting technique, the sculpture bears the rich patina finish that enhances its allure. Resting gracefully on a black marble base, adorned with Auguste Rodin's signature, this heart-piercing work of art invites contemplation and reflection on the multifaceted meanings it holds. A timeless representation of love and devotion, the "Eternal Idol" stands as a testament to Rodin's mastery and the enduring power of sculpted art.

ELEGANT WOMAN REVEW

YOUR ORDER HANDLING WAS FLAWLESS (EXCELLENT) AND
THE STATUE SUPERB HOWEVER:

DELIVERY VIA UPS WAS A NIGHTMARE - IT ARRIVED IN THE UK 05-13- 25 AND I FINALLY RECEIVED IT ON 05-27-25 AFTER TRYING ALMOST DAY BY DAY TO ASERTAIN WHERE THE PARCEL WAS AND REASON FOR DELAY-
THEY MISSED A STEP OUTOF THE PROCESS AND NEVER ASKED FOR A CUSTOM / VAT EXCEPTION.

Magnificent

This piece is extraordinary! I actually own two of them. They were superbly packed, as they are quite heavy. The base is Stone. I’m pretty sure it’s a combination of black marble and a stunning coral pattern onyx. It’s quite substantial in size. I highly recommend this dealer! I have bought dozens and dozens of this dealers statues. The packaging and shipping time is superb. Buy with confidence!

A beautiful statue

My statue is strikingly beautiful and well made. Quite heavy and much larger than I thought. I placed it on a round pedestal table and it looks incredible.

Beautiful! Eye popping decoration.

Had trouble with the mounts not being well done and that the plaque did not lay flat to a surface. But the beauty of the piece made it worth the trouble.
