Whilst this man did indeed use power tools, the skill he possess is mindblowing. Any body that doesn't work with their hands does not realise the 'touch' and 'feel' thats only years and years of experience bring. This man has skill that most do not possess, only when you can do the same can you criticise. Hats off to him.
What incredible artistic talent and skill! I'm surprised at just how soft the marble actually seems, though I'm sure the power tools make it look more so. Jerry of San Diego
Imagine having that much skill & patience to sculpt something as beautiful as that. I have never been jealous of anyone but I am certainly envious of the skills used here. Fantastic 👍👍👍👍
The craftsmanship and the art of carving stone into _splendid_ pieces of art is breathtakingly amazing. All the intricate details. Am surprised that these men are not muscular, even with power tools it still seems hard work turning marble into something marvelous.
Is it me or was the opening music the Kingdom Hearts theme? Also, what beautiful skills being displayed here! I’m an artist, not with stone though, and watching these amazing crafters at work brought tears to my eyes. It is a wonderful blessing to be able to create where there once was nothing, to be able to bring the images of the mind into reality. I love drawing so much!
phuck ewe programmers should use 50 years old massive computers, armies should go back to spiers and swords, and you should stop using youtube or even electricity and entertain yourself like people did back in the old days because you are cheating.....That's nonsense, Michelangelo had tools that people didn't have 100 years before him too, there's something called progress.
Andres Chile they had help. Michelangelo, for example managed a group of workers, he hired them and paid them. He had people clearing away debri, sharpening his chisels, cooking his food, bringing him his food, washing his clothes... he did not paint the chapel ceiling all by himself as history would have us believe. He had a crew of approx 30 men. He did not do all of the painting or even most of the sketches... the paintings were first done as sketches which were transferred directly to the plaster using mechanical means and then quickly painted.
Those guys only did a similar job to thus guy but just took longer because they didn't have the modern equipment like this guy has...they were no better
Marble dust is very different from silica which is basically glass... if you’re worried about people’s lungs you should consider passing out masks at public beaches.
Godwant sand on beaches is HUGE compared to the size of particles that can be produced by machine work and it is the size of the particles that matters. Large ones don't make it into the alveoli. If this is what this guy does regularly, he should protect his lungs (and eyes).
How could you ever pay this Gentleman a compliment that is fitting for the skill he has. I cannot find any words to describe his outstanding ability to produce work beyond perfection.
Finally!! an honest contemporary stone carving video that shows drilling(pointing) to be the primary means of copying form from a plaster or clay original. FAR too many such YT videos begin with the sculptor cutting down the stone to basic envelope shape, then skip forward to detail work done with a fine chisel, suggesting falsely that final result was achieved wholly by chisel. Often included is a voice-over by the sculptor musing poetically on the meaning of (and their struggles with) a practice now defunct and alien in this digital world... and it's not as if drilling itself is some 20thC invention, it goes back over 200 years.
I so enjoyed watching. I've been a wet clay sculptor most of my life but took a stone carving class a few yrs. ago. It was euphoric! I was covered in it and felt amazing! Kudos to you!!
Чудо. Наконец я воочию увидела, как рождаются из куска мрамора те замечательные статуи, которые стоят в музеях! И мое восхищение мастерами, создающими их, увеличилось стократно! Вот бы такие фильмы можно было посмотреть в музеях интерактивно! Как было бы хорошо и правильно!
Thanks for posting this fascinating film up. What a great job he's got.. I'm a self taught mason but never used marble. I did once carve the 3 wise monkey's into a piece of Beer stone that came from a quarry used since Roman times and is hard to find. Time seems to fly by when you find a shape in a chunk of stone and working to carve it out. It's a good feeling and good for the soul, bashing at a rock with a hammer and chisel. No limp wristed air tools for me, it's far too easy.
I have been thinking the very same as I watched these artisans. When they are older, and don't work anymore they will truly suffer. Yet their work will live on.
It's funny-as beautiful as the piece is, I couldn't help but wonder why no one wore ear or lung protection,to say nothing of the damage to arms and back- all to amuse rich people. He's not expressing anything so much as self contempt. Makes me grateful for OSHA. The work is amusing tho.
I carve stone and breathing in rock dust isn't as big of a concern if you were to breathe in pottery dust. It wont really effect you that much and to the one comment about arms and back yeah it's puts strain on them but you build up sculptors muscles in your arms so after a while and experience it isn't that bad
What an amazing thing to see .... I would love to feel the same dimensional space as this person, it’s as if he reaches into the marble and pulls out a fantasy.
I'll tell you the genius of these men. Put the same exact tools and conditions in people's hands now & they will do what millions of people cannot. They are still modern day artists. And yes, Michelangelo & Bernini were incredible.
I have to disagree. I believe that almost everyone possesses the ability to do these things, however there's a limited number of people who are willing to take the time and energy to do the work, and learn the lessons.
Astonishing skills being masterfully executed. The understanding of material, visual intelligence and hand skills are a joy to watch. If life were just, these gentlemen would be very rich financially to match such skills. Beautiful.
Makes me think of masters of the old. Myron, Polykleitos and then Donatello, Michelangelo and Bernini!!! No electricity, no power tools and yet, their works carved with such beauty, precision and detail are far superior to the art of today. Think of the countless hours spent with a chisel carving such masterpieces as Discobolus, David, Apollo and Daphne! Such disciplined, repetitive work. The amazing devotion and massive talents leading to revealing beauty, thought, movement, ideas. Pieces that after hundreds of years still mean everything, are able to move us and transform us. It seems we've lost the key to our own hearts and there is no return.
The metrical slowness of the movement "sculpts" the sculptor's idea. If I were a robot I would be humbled by my "empty precision." A work done by human beings with feeling at the tip of their fingers. Only masters within this "sanctuary", an atmosphere of waiting and searching.

Phenomenal workmanship. I had no idea this is what it took to recreate an original statue. These gentleman are not only artists unto themselves--they are Saints having this much passion and patience. I agree with everyone else's comments--please wear a mask.
I am self teaching right now working with marble I have some works in a gallery,I have a 4 1/2 inch grinder and some hand tool,how amazing it is to see the details in this video thank you for sharing,this is great!
Thank you for your creativity I wished I had some of it I hamer and Chelsea on a bird bath I didn't think i could do. what you do God has bless you thank you again.
Да, и е много жалко, че по времето на Микеланджело е нямало такива инструменти. Аз лично щях да съм щастлива, ако света имаше 10 пъти повече негови скулптури. На мен намаше да ми дойдат прекалено много.
@@user-xo8ut3qx4k Зачем? Если бы их было настолько больше, то не было бы оригинальности. Тем более скульптуры и сейчас очень много. В том же Эрмитаже в Санкт-Петербурге просто бессчётное количество, а это ведь не Греция, не Италия, не Рим...
molto bella è un'opera di un grande artista e genio.- Mi congratulo con l'artista e la galleria per questo video e mostro al mondo cosa si può fare con il cuore.-Saluti dalla città di Chicago, Illinois. Stati Uniti d'America (Pittore messicano O Romero)
So nice very talented marble sculptures/ artists they are(salute you), I wish I would have lived in Italy to gain such skills like these😏😏imagine when a time a genius sculptor like Micheal A. would have been lived in our present time with a modern carving tools?would it be even more wonderful like those in video?
Talent, imagine the sculptor that did the original, from his mind to the stone, the sculptor on the video has his talent to duplicate using the tools like a real master. I’m impressed
11:10 I cut this part from the video, made it into a gif, and now I am just randomly sending it to people with no explanation. I am having the time of my life.
Its fascinating to watch.... The artist will be gone, but that sculpture will remain for centuries to come...So the sculptor will be immortalised through his work!
Hello hello.. Thank you for this most interesting presentation. For the first time I could see so close the instrument used to take the measurements of the model sculpture. Beautiful instrument. Thanks to your video and meaningful close-ups I could even understand how in principle the replication is done. The iron rod has to be pushed further and further on the replica stone surface till the bronze lock screw reaches the gage and cannot go further. So you dig the stone of the replica till the iron rod is reaching this point. Still I did not understand how you determined the main fix point.. for everything.. but I guess it may be done at the start, prior to all the rest of the work.. probably a point on top of the models head in combination with the 2 fix points I noticed on the front down base. (?). I also liked the honesty in this film which is to show the use of modern tools such as an electric diamond blade side grinder. I mean.. that the video is not enacted to make people believe that these works of art are crafted only with hammers and chisels to make them appear more valuable to potential buyers. Also I was feeling "better" when I saw the artist getting plenty of dust in his face and on his head while cutting the stone with his grinder..and without mask, because I also like to work often in this way.. because I can't stand the mask which is making my eye glasses foggy and blurring my vision. Which is very counter productive for creativity. I can imagine now how a Master would let his apprentice do the rough work to get closer to the final shape without risking to ruin the stone and then take over gradually. In the old times this must have been the same. When a clay model stood beside the marble block.. and the Master gave the instructions to reduce the block to his several helpers. He could do another more challenging work closer to the finishing stage or have a rest.. relaxing a bit in town in the tavern.. 😁. Right now I only do rough work directly into the rocks without model.. but your video inspires me to do a duplicate later of one of my own carvings.. which could speed up the process to have several items of the same design. Thanks again.. Here is what I do. Greeting you from the former Ceylon. th-cam.com/video/JbS1ZcULLk4/w-d-xo.html
woooooooooooooooooow, questa é magnifica perfezione assoluta. mi alzo e vi applaudo. clap, clap, clap. braviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibraviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Maestro: now that I found you on youtube, allow me a question please. I always wondered, not so much now with diamond stones and all the pneumatic tools, but in the old days. How did they get the marble so smooth? Thanks
Whilst this man did indeed use power tools, the skill he possess is mindblowing. Any body that doesn't work with their hands does not realise the 'touch' and 'feel' thats only years and years of experience bring. This man has skill that most do not possess, only when you can do the same can you criticise. Hats off to him.
He is gifted. While I understand what you are saying, the reality is that anyone can criticize if they choose.

Yeees, Dearly Beloved from KH series, I just got goosebumps here!!!
I started dying laughing and went straight to the comments.
Imagine that work made with no electricity and anything but a hammer and chisel... now you understand the magnificence of Michelangelo or Bernini
phuck ewe oh yea cheating you go and do it then you mong
phuck ewe programmers should use 50 years old massive computers, armies should go back to spiers and swords, and you should stop using youtube or even electricity and entertain yourself like people did back in the old days because you are cheating.....That's nonsense, Michelangelo had tools that people didn't have 100 years before him too, there's something called progress.

exact comment I would make
Those guys only did a similar job to thus guy but just took longer because they didn't have the modern equipment like this guy has...they were no better
I wish this guy would wear a mask to guard his lungs, it's a rarity to find artists this good.
calcium derived from marble does absolutely no harm to your lungs. people should know.
Galleria Frilli but it will still collect there
Galleria Frilli Any dust is potentially harmful, people should know. Ask for Pneumoconiosis and Pulmonary fibrosis.
Marble dust is very different from silica which is basically glass... if you’re worried about people’s lungs you should consider passing out masks at public beaches.
Godwant sand on beaches is HUGE compared to the size of particles that can be produced by machine work and it is the size of the particles that matters. Large ones don't make it into the alveoli.
