The use of grain is very effective in this photo. It heightens the sense that we are peering back through time to see him. Surely the anguished expression he wears must come from seeing Icarus ignoring his father's instructions and flying too close to the sun. It is wonderful to see these pieces of art in your gallery.

le regard implorant de la statue est très émouvant et expressif.

Nice shot Zaid. What is the date of this statue and do you see more greek influence than roman influence?
