druxey Posted October 26, 2013 Share #5 Posted October 26, 2013 The figure is of a classical Graeco-Roman hero-warrior, as seen through 18th century eyes. You would have seen singers dressed like this in Handel operas.

Anja Posted October 26, 2013 Share #6 Posted October 26, 2013 Hello Alex, Don't worry about your English. It is fine. We will understand and otherwise we will ask. My native language is Dutch, so I have to search for the English words myself sometimes. But if you are having problems with the English words, try Google translator. It is not perfect, but it can help. Or send a message to one of our other Russian members, I'm sure they are willing to help if you ask. But I'm glad you will give it a try. Looking forward to seeing your work here. Regards, Anja Quote Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.
