"Meditation" is a sculptural work by French artist Auguste Rodin, created as part of his larger and more famous work, "The Gates of Hell." Initially conceived in 1880, "The Gates of Hell" was commissioned as a portal for a proposed Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris, which was never built. "Meditation" is one of the many figures that populate this monumental portal, which also includes iconic sculptures such as "The Thinker" and "The Kiss."

"Meditation" represents a solitary, introspective figure, embodying themes of contemplation and inner struggle. The sculpture is characterized by its serene yet somber posture, with the figure's head bowed and hands clasped together. This pose suggests a deep engagement with internal thoughts or emotions, aligning with Rodin's interest in expressing complex psychological states through physical form.

The work is executed in Rodin's signature style, which emphasizes texture and the play of light and shadow to enhance the emotional depth and realism of the figure. "Meditation" has been interpreted as a depiction of the human condition, particularly the capacity for self-reflection and the burden of existential awareness.

"Meditation" and the other figures of "The Gates of Hell" were not fully realized in bronze until after the museum project was abandoned. The figures, initially modeled in clay, were later cast in bronze and have been exhibited in various configurations and settings, contributing to Rodin's reputation as a pioneering sculptor of the modern era. The work remains a testament to Rodin's innovative approach to capturing human emotion and his mastery of sculptural form.
