That's an incredible statue. My husband would like this because he loves Egypt. Someday he hopes to travel there to see the pyramids.
absoultely love your choice of pics...
The concept of a chariot archer has always flummoxed me. Shooting an arrow at an enemy while balancing in a small cart being pulled by a horse moving at breakneck speed? Now that's skill.
Not to mention their horses have awesome hair.
The sepia leaves this archer and steed in motion in a light bronze - as the craftsman formed this art in the day. The sepia is totally in character with this ancient masterpiece!
Very nice. I like how the statue shines in the sepia.
A proud and rare female archer, shining through the sepia.
Beautiful.
I've scrolled up and down and had a most interesting time reading through your posts.
