Fugit Amor (Fugitive Love, or Fleeting Love), by Auguste Rodin

“Fugitive love” is a version of the popular theme of the lovers Francesca da Rimini and Paolo Malatesta, carried by a whirlwind in the Second Circle of Hell, where they report their fate to the poet Dante: at the moment of their first kiss, they were murdered for their illicit love affair by Francesca’s husband and eternally damned. While working at his monumental ‘Gates of Hell’, Rodin frequently recurred to this subject and presented the couple in various constellations.
