The Kiss by Auguste Rodin (UEB uncontracted)

Synopsis

This is an image of a marble sculpture of a man and a woman sitting on a large rock. It was finished in 1904. The front of the sculpture is on the left and a close-up of the right side in an image border is on the right of the page. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left when the image is the right way up. On the left of the page the couple are sitting with their lower bodies facing forward and their upper bodies facing each other. The man is on the left and the woman on the right. They are naked and in an embrace. At the top of the image the man's head is facing to the right and down. A lot of his face cannot be found as the womans arm hides it. Only the upper part of his right ear can be found. In this view his left arm cannot be found. His right hand is holding the womans left hip. His left leg is partly obscured by the womans legs which hang over it. At the top of the image the womans left arm is wrapped around the mans neck. It obscures most of her face as well as his. Her hand is behind his neck and cannot be found. Her breasts are seen from a three quarter view so only the nearest nipple is showing. Her right leg crosses his left leg and her left foot rest on his left foot. In the image on the right not all the sculpture is shown. It is a view from the right side of the sculpture. The man is facing forward and the woman facing away at an angle so her back can be found in the centre of the image. At the top of the image the mans face is facing to the right and slightly down. His ear to the left, an eye, the upper nose and the other eye on the right of the face can be found. The lower part of his face and mouth cannot be found as it is obscured as the woman kisses him. Her head is on its side, the top of her head is to the right and her chin to the left. She is facing away towards the man so only one ear can be found and her eyes cannot be found. Her left arm goes around behind his head so the lower arm and hand cannot be found. On the left, the man's right arm goes behind the woman's hip so his hand cannot be found. She rests on her folded right elbow so this hand is not shown either. On the right the man's left arm and hand rest on the rock. There is a small piece of carved cloth in his elbow.
