Today we went to the Capitoline Museum. While it was officially opened to the public in 1734, it has housed many pieces of art & artifacts since the 15th century. In the center of the piazza lies a replica of this really cool statue of Marcus Aurelius on a horse. It is one of, if not the best preserved equestrian statue. It overlooks the Roman forum that sits atop Palatine hill.
Here are the top 10 statues with the coolest hairstyles, in no particular order:
Bernini’s Medusa, circa 17th centuryDaniele de Volterra’s Bust of Michelangelo.Every day’s a good hair day when you’re a statue.This one’s actually ancient. It is the oldest of all the statues in this post. The hair ornamental crown is a really fashionable finishing touch to the outfit,Most statues were covered in many layers of glaze. Over hundreds of years, that glaze wore off. We only have access to the base colors. Some statues, however, actually incorporated colored marble into the bust. This is an example of such.
