Marconi
I've never been able to figure out if this Marconi model is supposed to be dead or sleeping.
possibly sleeping, if the model were dead, his body should has been washed. after all his head is resting on a pillow. if so, why the feet soles are so dirty?
Or is it an imitation of the Andrea Mantegna painting "Lamentation of Christ" from the late 1400's? He is the big example in art history for the use of foreshortening.

I did notice those soles.

ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't be the only time that Marconi copied art from an earlier era.
DeleteThat's the first thing I saw!!!
