Hilda: Oh dear, I hope I have not done the mother a disservice.
Joan Elizabeth: Thanks.
Martina: Well, the angle blocks the mother's expression and makes her look large. But as Ruma says, you can see it as an invitation to imagine the mother's face for yourself.
Asta: Thanks.
Cezar and Léia: Obrrigado.
Joan Elizabeth: That is what I thought, that the chiseled features and the perfectly coiffured hair are of a man not a boy. Although others see fear in the face, I find it is mostly expressionless as all detail is missing around the eyes.
I like the angle, I think it's interesting. It will be hard to show both their faces since they look at each other and not to the viewer, so your choice is a perfect solution for photographing this sculpture.
Your angle makes it feel like she's a very strict and quite scary mother.
ReplyDeleteThis is a really different take on mother and child ... I like it.
ReplyDeleteI am with Hilda: the child seems very afraid. Is it really the angle or is it the sculpture?
ReplyDeleteAdorable!
ReplyDeleteWonderful composition in this post, well done dear friend!
Hugs
Léia
Looking at it again I think the child's face is of an older person rather than a child ... that is making him look fearful rather than playful.
ReplyDeleteA back does it really lively.
ReplyDeleteIt is pleasant that I imagine what kind of face he does.
Interesante composicion de este conjunto escultorico integrado al entorno. Saludos!

By the way, the hut in the background is not usually there. It is part of the Christmas market.
