The first time I really saw a real sculpture was in the Colosseum Square in Rome. At that time, a Roman soldier stood on a small box in the square. There is a broken blue bowl in front of the box. The soldier's face was painted bronze. He wore a helmet and green armor, with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other. Whenever passers-by passed by, Roman soldiers waved shields and swords and made an arrogant appearance. However, whenever you raise your camera to take pictures, Roman soldiers will cover their faces with shields. The tour guide Xiaodong said, Hehe, this shield is a bargaining tool for Roman soldiers. If you want to put some euros in his little broken bowl, he will make various gestures and take pictures of you.
Later, in Salzburg, Austria, I saw a real-life sculpture, which I saw in mirabel Garden, where the film The Sound of Music was filmed. The sculpture of this handsome man stands on a small box, next to which is a small bowl like a pen container. One hand is hooked with a long-handled umbrella, and the other hand is open, as if conducting something. At first glance, it feels a bit like a musician. However, the sculptures of this handsome man, from hair to beard to eyebrows to gloves, from clothes to shoes to boxes to broken bowls, and umbrellas, are all silver gray, like an antique.
My 6-year-old son ran over and grabbed the handsome boy's hand. As a result, my hand started to move, which startled my son and ran away quickly, shouting, "Mom, this is a living person. What are the unearthed cultural relics? " The son's crying amused the tourists. It turned out to be another real-life sculpture. The real-life sculpture of this handsome man is much gentler than the Roman soldiers seen in the Colosseum Square in Rome. He is smiling. You can take photos at will, and say "thank you" with a smile whether you give money or not.
When passers-by passed by, the sculpture of the handsome man looked a little lonely. However, this handsome man sculpture is good at entertaining himself. I saw this handsome man sculpture, like a medieval aristocrat, reaching out to a passing beauty, making a noble gift and inviting her to dance. Hehe, there is really a beautiful woman to dance with him.
Looking at this romantic picture and thinking of the conductor of this handsome man sculpture before, I really want to imagine this handsome man sculpture as Mozart. Mozart was born in Salzburg and died young at the age of 35, but in people's hearts, he will always be a handsome man. In Europe, the real life sculptures of each country often imitate the historical celebrities of that country. It seems that in Salzburg, imitating Mozart should be the most natural and romantic realistic sculpture.
