Adele et La Cariatide tombée portant la pierre (1896). Gustav Stevens (Belgian, 1871-1971). Oil on canvas.The sculpture depicted is a version of La Cariatide tombée portant la pierre by Auguste Rodin. It depicts one of the figures of his monumental Gates of Hell. The strength of the features of the woman, and the similarity between her profile and the features seen in Rodin’s sculpture around this date, 1880-90, prompt the suggestion that she could be Rodin’s model Adèle. -- source link
