Furthermore, Rodin frequently drew inspiration from mythology and literature to give form to matter. Auguste Rodin paved the way for the next generation of modern sculptors. While academic sculpture of the time focused on idealized and perfect figures, Rodin sought to capture the emotion and essence of human life in his works, marking them with a play of light and shadow. The central theme of Rodin's work is the human figure, its suffering, its passions. The figures, molded in bronze, clay, or marble, are vigorous and express a strong sense of movement. He produced notable works such as: "The Kiss" (1882), "The Thinker" (1904), a nude male figure in a pensive pose, which became one of the best-known symbols of modern art, and "The Gates of Hell" (1917), a large bronze door representing Dante's journey through hell.
