The sculpture "Little Brother and Sister" by Auguste Rodin depicts two small, nude children. The child in front is being held by the child behind, who has their arms wrapped around them. The child in front has their head tilted back and appears to be sitting on a rock or mound. The child behind has one leg bent and resting on the rock, while the other leg is bent with the foot resting on the rock. Both children have their eyes closed. The sculpture is made of white stone and sits on a rough, textured base that resembles rock. The background is dark gray, with a lighter gray gradient around the sculpture.
