This guy is tapped into something other worldly, so cool! The name is incorrect. "Rape of the Sabine Women" is correct.

[@mariewilliams602]

Thats amazing what a gift he has

[@MrGlennJohnsen]

Honestly I think it's something oddly beautiful with damaged statues and figures, it tells a story.

[@blackwood3243]

This guy is amazing.

[@RemiStardust]

Wait, did they skip right over the actual casting process? What was the material used? The paint was just on the outside, right? Personally, I think it would've looked cool to replace the missing pieces with silver or bronze!

[@guadalupelucio9429]

Wow! Very nice done .

[@juliuscaesar2792]

I like how he uses a regular drill bit instead of a masonry one to drill into stone.

[@matthewfocke5360]

He is a Master Sculptor.

[@davidsnyder2000]

That guy has amazing talent and knowledge. Unbelievable! I can’t believe he was able to make those fingers and toes. Incredible workmanship. Whatever he got paid to rebuild that statue wasn’t enough. His quality of work is priceless👍😄

Am I the only one who things he should have accentuated the repairs instead of hiding it ala Kintsugi?
