A Stendhal

Stendhal, an esteemed 19th-century French author, shines brightly through a bronze medallion masterfully integrated into a simple yet striking stele. Rodin brought this vision to life based on the original sketch by sculptor David d'Angers. Marie-Henri Beyle, Stendhal's given name, is not as widely recognized as his pen name, which has become synonymous with literary excellence. His two most celebrated novels, Le Rouge et le Noir and La Chartreuse de Parme, have left an indelible mark on the world of literature. Stendhal's profound understanding of human psychology, as demonstrated through his character analysis, has earned him a reputation as one of the pioneering figures in the realism movement. His works continue to captivate readers with their depth and complexity, solidifying his place among the greatest writers of his time.
