Document Summary
Originally made in bronze, have marble from romans. The ones that did survive, see severe style aspects. The sculptor made it to be viewed in one angle. See the eloquent silhouette, the statue and composition only make sense from a single view point. Other views lose the pattern of the figure. These figures are in motion, their power relies o(cid:374) the (cid:448)ie(cid:449)er a(cid:374)d ho(cid:449) the (cid:271)od(cid:455) is prese(cid:374)ted. Like previously, see the moment right before the action, and other view points to portray really what hes doing. Another interested aspect of the copies, see artistic experiment of the arc starting at the hand and a zig zag with the legs etc. more like artistic compositional experiment than a realistic human figure. One has puntello, the hair, and shows how these copies were made. You screw the rods into the marble and carve off the measurements. This is as close as you can get without making casts.
