The Gates of Hell is a monumental sculptural group created by the French artist Auguste Rodin. Commissioned in 1880, it was inspired by Dante Alighieri's Inferno, depicting scenes from the Divine Comedy. The work features numerous figures, including the famous The Thinker, and explores themes of suffering and human emotion. The sculpture was intended to be a decorative door for a museum of decorative arts, but it was never completed during Rodin's lifetime. Today, it is housed at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, showcasing Rodin's mastery of form and his ability to convey complex narratives through sculpture.
