Description
Though the Young Royal Greek Torso looks as if it has survived since ancient times, it is actually made of composite and inspired by a museum piece that was a valuable antique. The skill of the artisans who created it is evident, not only in how the broken areas are so convincing but in the aged finish that fools the eye into thinking it is carved from stone. The sculpture is fastened to a metal base, which is also museum-style.
