About the Original Source:

Sakuntala, also known as Sakountala or Çacountala, is a sculpture by the French artist Camille Claudel, produced in several versions in different media from 1886 onwards, with the marble version in 1905 and the bronze casting in 1905. The sculpture depicts a young couple, a kneeling man embracing a woman leaning against him. It is named after the play Shakuntala by the 4th-5th century Indian poet Khalidasa and was inspired by the moment when the main character Shakuntala reunites with her husband Dushyanta after a long separation.

Creation Background:

Camille Claudel came to Paris in 1882 to study sculpture. In 1884 she became a student of Auguste Rodin, becoming his partner and lover. He ultimately refused to marry her, unwilling to end his long-term relationship with his son’s mother and later wife, Rose Beuret. This love triangle and abortion in 1892 led to the separation between Claudel and Rodin, but they remained on reasonable terms until 1898 when she moved out and opened her own studio.

About Camille Claudel:

She died in relative obscurity but has since been recognized for the originality and quality of her work. The subject of several biographies and films, Claudel is known for her sculptures, including The Waltz and The Age of Maturity. The National Camille Claudel Museum in Nogent-sur-Seine opened in 2017.
