    Lol, I have to agree with: 'I'm seasick'! It is a nice sculpture though.

    I think he looks like he's trying not to laugh at something. Love that each person has their own interpretation of this sculpture. That's great art to me!

    Well, it looks like he has spotted something strange to the right.....

    Nice sculpture.
    I like sculptures that are not always a copy of someone famous.

    btw.
    Many of our sculptures around in Norway,are actually made in Italy.

    Might be time to get up and on the sea again. Last fish I caught was in Spain about two decades ago.

    Please have a good week ahead.
