Italy 2014 musei capitollini

Posted on March 8, 2014 by LonSton

Several times a year I have to travel to Italy, mainly Tuscany to purchase marble for my work. when possible I take the opportunity to spend a day or two in Rome , Florence, Venice or Verona to study the sculpture and architecture for inspiration. Here are some picture of pieces I have recently been interested in and intend to reproduce either in part or as a whole.
