jackI went to the classics museum again one lunchtime. And caught a Growlithe! :)
But I also admired the statues.
I think I mostly re-absorbed the impressions of the ones I was really interested in the last time.
The sprawling faun, so sensuous and lascivious.
The bronze boxer, weary and bashed up, hand wraps (?) and small cuts inlaid in a different metal. I wonder what the story is of someone who said "I need a statue of an exhausted boxer about to make a final stand"?
And I seemed to remember a giant head with curly hair, almost the size of a human, but I think my memory exaggerated, or it was moved :)
