BELLISIMA PLASMACION Y DOCUMNETACION VISUAL CULTURAL.alexander stefanatos 27/04/2015 22:14
A superb fresco full of drama and grandeur... Achilles very hauty and full of rage and vengeance for the death of his beloved Patroclos by Hector is dragging triumphally the dead body. Little later he will fall himself dead exposing his tendon to Paris's poisoned arrow...Nice and clear photo, Adele.best regards alexander

Unglaublich. Die Perfektion der Details ist faszinierend. Da muß der Künstler eine unendliche Geduld und Akribie besessen haben. Ein herrliches Gemälde.LG Roswitha

On s'y croirait! Superbe scène antique, dont Hollywood s'est probablement inspirée pour tourner Ben Hur!... Si on organise à nouveau de telles courses - si possible sans le pauvre type traîné derrière le char... - il nous faudra régler notre appareil sur une vitesse un petit peu supérieure au 20ème de seconde...Alfredo Spagnoli 25/04/2015 9:51
Molto bella!Complimenti Adele.
Ciao, Alfredo
