'Seven Greek coins'

For the Friday evening :)
Eugene Delacroix 'Seven Greek coins', The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY

Cool! That is a great representation of the passion the ancient greek engravers had in creating some great masterpieces of coins!

Is this like a poster you have bought?

I love the way the artist took the effort to represent the light and shadow on the reliefs;
Particularly when highlighting those abs/muscles of the horses and people on the coins.

Those muscles were a sheer necessity for survival in those days. These days it's the ability to code or work with data in one way or another that increase your chances of being able to support a family with all its needs. With those old typewriters that required muscled fingers but speech recognition is even automating part of the finger job away.
