I Colorize 19th Century Statues To Make Them Come To Life

Super creative

Indeed, it's confirmed. If you look closely at an ancient Greek statue, you can see paint residue, sometimes very vivid. And archeologists have found stations were paints were created, and even basic manuals for paint preparation.

They have figured out with a certain degree if certainty what the Mona Lisa looked like back when it was new. I guarantee you Leo would absolutely cringe if he saw what we worship now. He' be all "No, you guys have no idea. It was so much better before!"

This shows just how good these sculptures are. This is a really cool idea, and if Lyone Fein is correct, then that makes it even cooler.

Old statues always make me feel better about my body as they are quite curvy really and this highlights that.

This is interesting. There is good evidence that the ancient Greeks actually painted their statues (the ones that are all white marble now), as art historians have detected microscopic paint chips of numerous colors embedded in their surfaces. So this is right in line with "classical" practices.

So creative, the atmosphere around the statues are what makes it so beautiful. I love it.

Four of the original statues were named, assumably by the original sculptor, after bible characters. I kept the original names even though I chose not to portray them as the original characters.

Actually these are all semi-transparent colour layers over the original statue image.

Robert they are painted directly over the image of the statue. The hair and some of the lace patterns are the only areas that don't strictly line up with the underlying image. ;)

He made all of them very, very pale, didn't he? There isn't even a hint of a tan on any of them....

Which is in line with the beauty ideal at the time, also, note the body- not skinny or plus size, a group hardly represented by media anymore

I Colorize 19th Century Statues To Make Them Come To Life

These look really nice! O_O good job
