I have a friend who, when she still lived in the same town, took care of me having art in my house. She gave me this African statue. I feel bad about the missing bit here but can't remember if it came like this or if it broke when someone in the house (whose name I won't mention) dropped it. The piece you see here is about 2 inches long.
HMM!
Statue , Fortuna , Rotterdam
Ofcourse we can find the golden style statue of Fortuna at a casino.
I've used a dodge and burn tool to upgrade the contrasts of the statue against the dark building also to give it a more silver style.

Frozen garden statues stare
Blankly into nothingness
Eyes that see all but do not
Perceive anything.
I am frozen, cold as ice,
All of me is blank and numb.
I have eyes that see as well,
I'm just a statue.
These statues are part of an art exhibition in Budapest.
The New World Design for Contemporary Art presents almost 600sqm of the world of the Great War, which can be seen as the epoch that radically changed the world order of the time: the formerly stable empires have dissolved, culture and public thought have changed dramatically. World War II buried the old world, the result of a new world conflagration and then the Cold War. Europe was bleak in the twilight that the 20th century was dominated by America and Russia.
The exhibition takes visitors from happy peace to enthusiasm for war and bitter disappointment. It shows how the civilization of civilized and global warfare was fought, how the 19th century came to a standstill and the hinterland became the battlefield. The nature of war has changed: victory has now become a function of the amount of war material.
