La Ronde

Auguste Rodin

National Gallery of Art

The image displays swirling lines and softly etched shapes that form an abstract depiction. The scene features human-like figures that appear to be interacting or dancing. In the background, lines converge to create abstracted hills or mountains with a suggestion of a structural form resembling a sail or tower.
