So poignant an expression, can you imagine how long the model had to stand still for that face to be carved in stone, What an amazing artist. May they rest in Peace.
The statue was significantly taller so I walked around it taking various shots to capture the expression. I don't have a SLR camera so I am limited at times, and frustrated in trying to get the shot.
Wahoo! Comments are fun. I will always try to check out your blog, shop or website and follow back. I want to support the work and ideas of fellow cyberspace community members.
