JEAN TURCAN -- Rodin decides to leave "Il Bacio" in this "unfinished" way.

Speranza

The Kiss was originally carved by one of Rodin's assistants, Jean Turcan but Turcan left Rodin's studio before the work was completed. This meant that the original copy of 'The Kiss' was roughly finished and Rodin chose to leave it this way rather than have it worked on my one of his other assistants.
