Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sculpture by Auguste Rodin, made in 1889, terracotta, 20,2 x 36,5 x 27,5 cm depicting a female mythological figure, a Danaïd. According to Greek mythology, the Danaïds were banished to the underworld and the eternal task of filling a leaky vessel with water. The female figure is crouched in a pose that expresses despair in the face of this hopeless chore. The Danaïd was originally designated to be part of The Gates of Hell. The work was enlarged and cut in marble for the buyer Herman Frithiof Antell. Encouraged by the success, Rodin had further copies made in marble, bronze and other materials.
Svenska: Enligt den grekiska mytologin var Danaiderna förvisade till underjorden med en evighetssyssla, nämligen att fylla ett ständigt läckande kärl med vatten. Den kvinnliga gestalten är hopkrupen i en ställning som uttrycker hopplöshet över den tröstlösa uppgiften. Danaid var ursprungligen tänkt att ingå i Helvetesporten. Verket förstorades och höggs i marmor för köparen Herman Frithiof Antell. Succén gjorde att Rodin lät göra ytterligare exemplar i marmor, brons och andra material.
