The Giant of Apennines in Holland
"In the 16th century artist and sculptor Giambologna needed 11 years to cut a sculpture from the boulders in the Medici gardens near Florence – a giant holding the head of a water-spouting monster under the ground using one hand.The version standing in the Mondo Verde park – 14m high – was created by two Americans over seven month period. The ingredients included an iron frame, 470,000 kg of concrete, and a great deal of courage and imagination."
Это текст с некой сопроводительной таблички, которая там стояла. Я пока ничего не проверял про этого Giambologna, за что купил, про то и запостил.
головы обоих монстров крупно -


на ночь лучше не смотреть.

Thank you for posting the English captions, too. I always enjoy your posts, but sometimes it's nice to actually understand the words, lol. :)

you may also consider looking at my English-language journal,
they are not identical, the latter is more 'professional' (also meaning 'boring') but at least you will not need an online translator for every posting :)
