now this is remarkable.
i hope you, too, thought this was a picture of actual human beings. the fingers that slightly indent the flesh of a woman. looks normal. but it should not. it is a 400 year old sculpture - marble - that is a fucking hard material.
contemporaries used to describe the way bernini worked as “raping marble” because he could do things to it, other were not even able to think of.
another sculpture of his “apollo and daphne” is just as remarkable because he managed to sculpt leaves that were so thin they became translucent. remember we are talking about stone here.
Bernini Sculpture: Pluto and Proserpina (1621-22)

This is beautiful

I had to Google this to make sure it was real, because it’s just too ridiculous

My favorite sculpture. Saw it in person, my face was :-0

o_0 this is amazing

and thus the NBA loses one of its greatest coaches, he may have deserved a better curtain closing than a sweep in conference semi-finals……

Me: Can I use the bathroom? Teacher: I don’t know, can you? Me: When I was using “can” I was using its secondary model form as a verbal modifier asking for permission, as opposed to expressing an ability. I thought since you were a teacher you’d know that. My bad. MAY I use the restroom?

How About That of the Day: Sick and tired of your toddler drowning in backyard pools? Enter: Infant Swimming Resource, a self-rescue organization devoted to teaching your child how to avoid dying in water.

To prove that their techniques really work, ISR pushed a bunch of babies into a pool and filmed the result. Everything went better than expected.
