Ave,
Scratching your head that way could leave you without a head! :lol:
Anyways… and absolutely no disrespect to anyone on this forum but… honestly, if you look at the craftsmanship on the Adamklissi metopes and compare it to sculptures such as, oh… basically every other sculpture from antiquity… I see a real lack of talent there.
The sculptor who chiseled out the Adamklissi metopes was either drunk or suffering from a traumatic brain injury… perhaps he was scratching his head with a gladius and cut a little too deep!?!?! :wink:
Seriously… just compare the artistry of this sculpture to any of the Adamklissi metopes panels…
