Description
Crafted from the palest green stone, this magnificent figure bears an amazing resemblance to Cycladic idols carved thousands of years earlier and half a world away. Is it coincidence, or could there be a connection between Ancient Greece and the New World? Perhaps Atlantis was more than a myth. Who can say where the survivors might have scattered, what images might have remained in their collective memory? - (PF.0528)
