I love the subsection of marble busts/ statues that have star or some celestial ornaments in a lady’s hair. Yes two of the examples are Diana/ Artemis but for good reason Iike I’m literally obsessed.

Hiram Powers 1850 / 54. America Giosuè Argenti (1819 – 1901) L'Immacolata

Diana, 1771, statue by Giovanni Battista Hiram Powers, 1853, Diana

VENUS DE MILO | 150-100 BC |

THE VENUS DE MILO is a masterpiece of ancient GREEK art. Despite missing her arms, this marble statue exudes grace, beauty, and timeless elegance. The sculpture represents the idealized female form of classical antiquity.

The sculpture displays several characteristic HELLENISTIC traits, such as the twisting pose of the body and the sensuality of the figure. The drapery cascades softly around her hips and legs, emphasizing her feminine curves while also concealing her nudity. The statue was originally decorated with jewels, as evidenced by holes in the head, ears, and upper body.

THE VENUS DE MILO'S facial features are delicately rendered, with a serene expression that exudes a sense of inner tranquility and beauty. Though her arms are missing, the statue's enduring allure lies in its ability to captivate viewers with its enigmatic beauty, inviting interpretation and contemplation.

Scholars speculate about the original context and purpose of the VENUS DE MILO. Some believe she may have been created as a representation of the goddess APHRODITE, while others suggest she may have been a portrait of a mortal woman or even a COURTESAN. Regardless of her original purpose, it remains an enduring symbol of feminine beauty and grace.

KENNETH CLARK describes the figure as "the last great work of antique GREECE", and "of all the works of antiquity one of the most complex and the most artful....[the sculptor] has consciously attempted to give the effect of a 2nd-century work, "while also using "the inventions of his own time. "

Bust of Iphigenia by Claude Michel called Clodion (1738-1814)

There are some beautiful Greek/ greek inspired busts out there but this one has to be my favorite. (It’s probably also a benefit that I love Iphigenia too)

Uhm uhm I think everyone should practice still lives of Greek sculptures

My plan was try to do a still life of the sculpture and then draw it in my style. Sculptures are by favorite form of anatomy practice.

I still struggle with doing still lives of people cause I’ve been taught only doing it with items and non anatomical pieces so maybe I’ll practice more in the future. I was also doing this in a slightly dim classroom as well.
