....and he is down and out and no match for our local cowboy 'Sheriff Kidder'! lol! ....a human living statue in the Piazza Navona in Rome. I did think about posting this in the urban contest, but I decided to enter the graffiti art photograph I posted earlier instead, which is more realistic in interpretation!

A great sculpture, very realistic and revealing of the human conditiion, and I was going to suggest you put it in the contest but I see you already thought about that...sometimes it's hard to decide what to put in the contest as there's so many possibilities...you could always add it later if you change your mind...anyways, great shot and tks for sharing.

This is an excellent statement on the human condition Patti! The poor fella looks so weary and tired. He still knows he's a cowboy though, Rome or not.

Life is the pits sometimes, but God and your friends are always there to help you through it.
Excellent. I found myself studying this sculpture from head to foot. Real or no, I asked?

"The more we come in contact with animals, and observe their behaviour, the more we love them, for we see how great is their care for their young." - philosopher Immanuel Kant
this is actually a person who is painted to look like a statue and posing like one - you will see people doing this in many cities around Europe! :)

Quite amazing how he looks like Heath Ledger! It's fascinating that people are doing this statue thing. Wonderful capture. :)

Great fun Patti, very well captured I like the way the light has caught his leather clothing.

....and any other laden fancy, we will take her by surprise!
I want to know what he's got in that holster!! Amazing way of presenting art and it must get hard on the "bum" after a while!!

"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
I hope he was alive...
great subject, great work!

If you have some minutes why don't you come visiting my gallery ?
he was definitely alive! lol! I saw him walk across the piazza and lie down in position right in front of me, so of course I took the opportunity to photograph him.

You never see human statues like this where I live. They're all too busy putting on a face for the world. This is such a cool view of the artist with his make-up on but his face off, so to speak.
Have to say I found myself looking at the bottom of the post and wondering just what he was sitting in though. Well, I can't help being practical!!
This is such a human, warm and insightful post. Thanks for this one Patti - I think we should do more of these and force a reappraisal of people posts.

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY

Looks very real, special the head. Your choice for the urban contest was good. The other would make a better entry indeed.

My images on the map in Google Earth just click here.
This looks like out of a computer adventure. It is a fantastic piece of artwork, but your decition was write - the other one just fits better.
