This marble sculpture by Auguste Rodin, titled Psyche-Spring (c. 1886), captures a moment from the myth of Psyche and Cupid. It shows Psyche gazing at her sleeping lover, embodying themes of sensuality and love. Carved by Rodin’s assistant Bertrand-Jacques Barthélemy, the piece highlights Rodin’s mastery of marble through its delicate rendering of emotion and form.
