Hundreds of preparatory sketches called "black drawings" were made for this masterpiece, which is shown in a photo by its artist's student Jessie Lipscomb that indicates how a portion titled Fleeting Love was moved to the left. This sculpture's structure was modeled in appearance on (*) Ghiberti's doors to the Florence baptistry, and part of it was modeled on Ugolino and His Sons by Carpeaux [car-POE]. It depicts a pair of kissing lovers named Paolo and Francesca and contains its artist's famous The Thinker. For 10 points, name this monumental sculpture of a scene from The Inferno by Auguste Rodin.
