Alpo Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 1 hour ago, sassnetguy50 said: How many times have you been rear ended in your driveway? Place I used to live, the street made a 90° turn. One night I hear this horrendous crash, go outside and look. Some guy had not made the turn. It just driven straight across the street up into the yard head on into a pine tree. So I can absolutely understand that "rear-ended in your driveway" thing. Somebody not paying attention and not making the turn. For the longest time a fairly busy street ended at a T intersection. And on the other side of the cross street was this giant oak tree. We called it the killer oak. Late at night, half drunk, people be charging down that busy street and blow through that stop sign and go right across the street into that oak tree.

So Raimondo di Sangro appointed a young Neapolitan artist, Giuseppe Sanmartino, to make “a life-sized marble statue, representing Our Lord Jesus Christ dead, and covered in a transparent shroud carved from the same block as the statue”. Sanmartino paid little heed to the previous scale model made by the Venetian sculptor. Both in Modesty, and in the Veiled Christ, the original stylistic message is in the veil, but Sanmartino’s late baroque feeling and sentiment permeate the shroud with a movement and a meaning far removed from Corradini’s rules. https://allchronology.com/2023/08/12/the-veiled-virgin-a-masterpiece-of-illusion-and-artistry-carved-in-stone/ And another one https://academiaaesthetics.com/gallery/la-pudicizia/ https://medium.com/@oshmanlabby/three-artworks-that-got-the-artists-accused-of-alchemy-3086e919ca6 For more like these search "gossamer marble statue.

Alpo Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 "The veiled Christ"?? Beardless? Those three pictures are obviously two different sculptures, but I thought they were both supposed to be women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
