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.
Male beauty at its best.
ReplyDeleteStyle de tableau classique, as was the fashion at that time.
ReplyDeleteMyron’s discobolus come to life.
Utterly stunning work.
