I have made the comparison, interesting to see how we both pick the same subjects.

You choose to use black and white, while I kept the faint color of the marble. I add tension by allowing the subject float in darkness, while you bring the lower edge into the sculpture. My image is darker, which I did in post-processing, which conceals the wire that comes out of his head and makes him seem to float even more. I wanted to send the viewer back into time here. Both images are incongruous because the dead bishop seems to be just resting,
with his hands on head and book.
