Statue duplicate


The model here is Brancaccio, who will appear later today without the fig leaf.
Desbonnet posed him here to duplicate a Classical statue, even down to the leg support.

  1. Style de tableau classique, as was the fashion at that time.
    Myron’s discobolus come to life.

    1. The photographer and model both knew what they were doing.

    2. They certainly did. Very much the living statue. Intriguing base, slight slope? The placement of the right arm, is spot on.
