Un Regard c'est belle! I love the marbling and the scar over the eyebrow, which suggest a life well-lived. The look on the face, le visage, is worldly amusement. You captured it very well in your photo, especially with the coloring in the eyes.

SUPERBE statue,
ca doit être egyptien... ca doit avoir plusieurs millénaires et c'est bien plus vivant et parfait que tout se que l'on ne pourra JAMAIS faire avec un ordi ou des images de synthèse.
J'adore cette photo et j'ai envie de partir découvrir ce superbe portrait.
