This original marble sculpture on solid scots pine wood stand is one of the latest artworks of the talented professional Bulgarian sculptor Rasho Mitev, deeply inspired by modernism, classical portraiture and neoclassicism. Marble is an amazing millions of years old type of rock, its natural glamour come mainly from its metamorphosis from limestone. The sedimentary type of rock - the limestone - in millions of years process crystalizes under heat and chemical processes and turns into marble. This long and beautiful transformation in nature is like the caterpillar turning into a beautiful butterfly. So does marble. The artist concept is to hand carve into solid marble a young woman portrait and display it gently on warm color wood stand, creating a light, airy and graphically minimalistic female portraiture and elegant figurative form. It is now one extraordinary marble masterpiece and exquisite modern home décor.
