Description
Inside the J. Paul Getty Museum in Pacific Palisades, California, a very old bronze statue. Don't know the origin but most likely Italian.
Scanned from a photo, taken in the early 80s. First, thank you for your comments on the quality of my scanned photos. Second, I would like to thank Sig (Junge1), once again, for the inspiration, to get into last summer’s, scanning project. I scanned 2,984 photos. So far you have seen Bryce Canyon, Getty Museum, Canyon de Chelly, Tonto, Wupatki, London, Walnut Canyon, Swans, Whales, Chiricahua & Yosemite – all scanned photos. Just think that there about 2,500 to go. :>)
I have to mention that I had a high end Pentax in those days and was lucky to find an Asahi lens. That made a big difference in the quality of the photos that I scanned.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous comments and favs.
