Auguste Rodin’s belief in the expressive power of every aspect of human anatomy led to some of his most radical experiments, like this sculpture of two right hands. With their fingertips about to touch, these hands suggest a partnership or solidarity between two individuals. See this sculpture and more on view in “Rodin’s Hands” at the Rodin Museum.
