ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The pursuit of creating the perfect female torso, as a standard of female beauty, is inherent to artists of every historical era. We can observe the search for such plastic solutions in the ancient cultures of Babylon, Sumer, Akkad, and Ancient Egypt. Polished black granite gave a special resonance to the plastic forms, emphasizing the contrast of textures and the soft flexibility of the female torso's silhouette. The artist has created three versions of this sculpture in different types of stone: black Ukrainian granite, white Italian marble, and red Indian marble. Displayed together, these torsos also remind the viewer of the origins of the ancient plot about the "Three Graces."
