Hofburg statues in Vienna
Outside the Gates of the Hofburg, in Vienna, Austria, lies this spectacular sculpture.
The Hofburg is a medieval castle once home to the Hapsburg Empire and arguably the most significant secular building in Vienna.
What began as rough stone ended as the sublime. The details show incredible observation of the Human form... and the ability to re-create it using metal tools is baffling yet inspiring.
