A detail from Ratto di Proserpina by Gian Lorenzo Bernini

Back of this statue is my fav detail, how to make material so hard to look so soft ❤️ 200 $degen

a curious toadz. /bookends /details /outofbounds

yes, a little known piece prior to refik 😂

I recognize that from Refiks Nifty Gateway genesis

literally one of my favourite artworks on this planet ever. maybe THE top 1.

fell in love with it in my first art history class when I saw it in a textbook at the age of 16. Audibly gasped when I saw it IRL for the first time in 2017.

Are there any sculptors alive today who can sculpt cloth, hair and flesh with this kind of fidelity?

Love these details! Thanks Sonso 500 $degen
