    He certainly is holding some apples back there, my goodness.. lol.
    Until it was mentioned, I didn't see fatigue on him at all. I thought he seemed at ease, but the expression on his face does look pretty weary... I'll try not to remember that part as I exercise today.

      The Romans were faithful sculptors of the faces and bodies of the subject to be depicted and definitely they knew how to work marble
      To copy does not require creation and it is much easier to do
