    To me the very idea that a dude in 1345 B.C.E. could capture something in a bust that we more than 3000 years later would still find unbelievably beautiful. It's inspired me to eventually visit the Neues Museum in Berlin.
It makes you wonder if there is something intrinsic in what we commonly find appealing/attractive? Symmetry is often pointed to as a key indicator of attractiveness. This certainly has that.

Great post, thank you for sharing.
