Your wonderful images from Rome make me want to go back. (And by go back, I mean, see Rome for the first time that counts---last time I was there was in a stroller.) #9151268

Neptune, right? You have done an outstanding job of framing him, Patti. The flowing diagonal lines are all held together nicely by the balcony at the top. I know how you love sculptures and you have captured this one beautifully with fine tones and thoughtful composition.
Steve #9154621

Patti Coblentz January 11, 2011 0

Thank you very much, Steve!
May as well call it a rose...I was after the form, never take time to document the history...bad bad.
Thanks again! So, is it Neptune? #9154629

Steve M. Harrington January 11, 2011 0

That is my best guess. If there were a trident, it would be definite. I know for sure rose is out of the question. :) #9154631

Amazing POV here Ms.Patti. What a physique, too!

I wonder what he was doing here? Slowing the sails? Did it show the entire "thing" he was sitting on?

Gorgeously done in these tones. Sepia?
