The Spirit of Eternal Repose (French: Le génie du repos éternel)[1] is a 1898–1899 sculpture of a sprite by French artist Auguste Rodin.

[2] The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston's Lillie and Hugh Roy Cullen Sculpture Garden has a bronze sculpture.

The Houston Press called the work "curious, since the ankles are crossed as they might be when a person is relaxing, but the tilted angle of the torso is precarious and the muscular arms are very active indeed.

"[3] It is one of three Rodin sculptures in the garden; the other two are Cybele (1890/1904) and The Walking Man (1877–1878).
