ChappsHere's a little experiment in digitally reconstructing ancient bronzes. On the left is a reconstruction of the famous early-mid 1st c. CE statue of Livia from the theater of #Herculaneum, as it once might have looked, polished, with stone and glass eyes and bronze eyelashes. On the right is a photo of how it currently looks, with darkened bronze, and no eyes (due to both the heat of Vesuvius and 18th c. meddling). Photo by Dr. Steven Zucker, Smarthistory.org 1/
Anne-Marie de Jong@Chapps There big but remarkable beautiful.
Little ones would sell like crazy I imagine. At least I would like to own one. No shame in remake.
