The sculptures are now housed at the Archaeological Museum in Parma, Italy.
I’ll be the guy who asks why does one look like a twink with a micro penis and the other looks like an athlete with a Harvey Weinstein/Trump dick? And who is who?
The advanced 3d laser printers that made these in the 1800s must have been out of this world cool to work with
Some say Roman art is crude and it often is but these are superb.
