    Hello everyone!
    How was your summer?

    I wanna show you a very interesting statue. Is from Louvre's Garden, and the expression of the statue got my attention.
    I hope I got it right in my photo.

    looking at it, i think of the top guy having hope for the bottom one....he is more lit- more hopeful...the bottom one is in despair - thus the shadowing. how is that for an interpretation? good job, lovin!

    I can see it that way too, and I think that indeed is more about hope, or compassion for the little guy.
