I have always admired the prince known as Paris of Troy. A man who desired beauty above wealth and power. Doomed from the start for having to choose the loveliest of three immortal goddesses, he was doomed as soon as he made his choice. This is a finely crafted statue worthy of stately gardens and halls that depicts the noble youth on legend. I have opted to set him in a garden that I have crafted centered around his myth, filled with three flowers for each of the goddesses. My only regret was that I didn’t opt for the heavier weight, which means I have to go out into the garden if there are extreme and heavy winds to lay him down on the ground. For indoors it should not make any difference. Did not arrive crated as expected but did come soundly packaged and for overseas shipping that says a great deal! Anyone should feel great pride in purchasing from Sculptured Arts Studio. I certainly do!
The bust of Paris arrived very well packaged and undamaged. She is beautiful. An eye-catcher that no one should miss.
