This artwork by Auguste Rodin features a clenched left hand with an imploring figure. The subject of the work is the tension and desperation conveyed through this gesture.

Style
Auguste Rodin was associated with the art movement known as Impressionism during his early career but later developed his own distinctive style called Expressionism. In this particular artwork, we can see elements of both movements.
Rodin's style often focused on capturing raw emotions and portraying them realistically rather than adhering to traditional notions of beauty. He emphasized texture and form to convey intensity and drama in his sculptures like Main crispée gauche avec figure implorante.
