Hi Cherrye, I saw i Bronzi a few times… most recently was 96 (ouch, the years fly!) would love to see them again… and the mythical missing one. There was a great little gelato shop in a circular shack when I was there and it was soooo good! wonder if it’s still there?? By the way… you ladies are also looking good!

Oh yes, Joe. Cesare’s is still there. it is scheduled for next week.

Too Funny Cherye! Those fit ancient Greeks were really something…yumm! My husband, Bill has a bod.. and my friends agree that the “David” has some competition… but Bill has nicer legs from biking. I now regret not making the jaunt further south when we were there. Next time on the bike trip– we will be back next year I am sure! Kisses to you and Pepe.. B

Hey there! Maybe it will be better if you see the bronzi with Bill … he can size up the competition! ha ha

To think I saw them when they just been fished out of the sea. Long lines to see them. They didn't quite have the same effect on me-perhaps because I was distracted by the living butts around me. I find Rodin's *...* irresistable... Wow. That is awesome you saw them so early on. So did my husband. He said it was a big social event! Maybe you should see them again??

I was bummed that I couldn't take pictures too. I think those bronzes of Riace are without a doubt, the most stunning sculptures I have ever seen. To think they were sculpted with the "lost wax" process thousands of years ago makes them even more amazing. There are a couple of bronze statues in a similar style and era in Rome's Museo Nationazale Palazzo Massimo alle Terme. Next time you get to Rome, go see them. One is of a boxer, the other a prince - equally stunning. I will, thanks! Ciaochowlinda’s last blog post..“Le Matte” hold a festa /artichoke squares recipe

I agree with KC……guess you need to go for live subjects when you want to post *butt shots*…..

Ha! Only if they are like the one you son took in Sicily!

While because they are clothed I cannot comment on their derrieres, the bronzi of Pergola in le Marche are equally stunning. A lifelong amateur fanatic at Roman history, I felt like I understood really for the first time what a Roman woman looked like and how she wore her clothes. Sure, you see drawings, but they always looked like it would all fall off too easily. When you see them face to face it makes you straighten up and think, "It's posture." I think you are right. Maybe I should work on that?!?! Judith in Umbria’s last blog post..National Arboretum, Washington, DC

Lol, I agree about the Riace warriors’ butts. But you’ve left your readers hanging, so to speak, with that frontal view. We want butts!

I looked! They won’t allow pics inside the museum and unfortunately the professional photos I found focus on the front. (Beats me!)
