Powerful and mysterious, the human form seems to emerge from the soul of the stone itself. With the simplest of details, a few quick lines, the artist has delineated a very real personality. There is something primal about this figure, as if he had been around since the rock itself was new. He radiates the energy of monolithic sculpture on a much larger scale.
