The Shade, The Slave or The Titan[2] is a sculpture by the French artist Auguste Rodin, conceived around 1880 and used in triplicate as a part of the artist's large-scale work The Gates of Hell.[1][3] It evolved into both the full size sculpture The Three Shades, and a separate sculpture of a single figure, The Shade.
