Artist's Comments

This is the sculpture of the she wolf and the twins Romulus and Remus. Yes, I saw it in person! It's pretty cool! It was in one of the many, many museums we went to. And all across Rome they had stands where you could buy miniature reproductions of it. I bought a mini Pieta` for my aunt. :)

Interesting (and pointless) fact. The wolf was made by the Etruscans in 65BC, and the twins were added in during the Renaissance, around 1470.

I'm surprised they let you take a picture in the museum! I had no idea it as so big.

Omg! This is the sculpture I was telling you about when we went to the Met!
I've seen it at a few galleries, namely the Frick.

Excuse me, have you seen my sanity? I think I've lost it.

So long as there was no flash, you were allowed to.
:iconultimatedogluva528:
Yeah, I know. I thought you might like to see it. :)
So you've seen it too?
:iconagkito:
Of course, but I don't believe that the twins were there.

Interesting fact:
There's a She Wolf in your closet.
Open up and set her free (AHWOOO!)

D: If I let her out, then she'll eat people and turn them into werewolves.

On second thought... *goes to open closet*

Huh. Interesting.

Cool, though.
