The vase shows some satyrs chasing after some more nymphs. But she looks amazing, I am a sucker for long hair so to see one lady immortalised in stone...mmmmm

Jan 2014: The Nymph of Dampierre
Now here's a beautiful beautiful fountain with a delicious looking nymph washing her hair. The statue was made in 1763 and was placed in a Chateau in France.

Jan 2014: A lovely sweet girl
such a wonderful terracotta statue by Albert Ernest Carrier Belleuse in 1865..She has wonderful features, sweet, cute and I just love her to bits.
now thinking about it, theres no colour, there is no striations, no nothing, just terracotta and the sculptor has managed to bring out such wonderful expressions and feelings.
