Evening Shadow - Part 2
The Apprentice Started conversation Sep 27, 2010
Okay - so, it got into Peer Review this weekend, not next. I loved researching and writing this piece because it had so many fascets. I got to read about artists, collectors, Etruscans, awards, holy statues, house spirits and, of course, the statue itself - a beauitful figurine I would dearly love to see in person at some point.
Very little of the original remains now - less than 1%. Alas, in the midst of my research I translated several Italian pages on the statue using Google - and the original article contained a lot of mistranslations identical to those created by the automatic translator. So, rather than a Flea piece, this has become an Inspired by... and I really enjoyed doing it.
