      They looked even more spectacular in ancient times because they were usually painted to look as lifelike as possible.

      The Colossus of Nero was supposedly the biggest of the ancient statues but it doesn't get much recognition. It was over 30m tall.

    I really like this reconstruction. In a sense, I'm glad that it can't ever be a precise reconstruction as there is enough missing detail that any of us can fill it in with our imaginations as we interact with it. It is an example of why I think careful and thoughtful reconstructions using the surviving elements of ancient sculptures can be as meaningful to visitors as the fragmentary originals today. It is one thing to be told what something looked like. It is quite another when it is presented in a physical form that we can actually see and touch.

    I do remember visiting a museum in Tunisia , (1971), after touring the remains of Carthage standing beside a foot from what must have been an enormous statue. I’m about 5’ 10” and came below the ankle where the foot had been broken off. To think how tall the statue must have been , and probably was painted, is mind boggling.

  • @nicolaverlato9119

    the sculpture was evidently conceived, by the roman artists, with an anamorphic effect : the proportions of head and arms are larger than the ones of the legs which appear to be very short. Based on this kind of anamorphic treatment we should conclude that the sculpture was positioned on a tall pedestal. The anamorphosis was applied on the figure in order to compensate the perspectival diminuition given by the position of the viewer. I think it would have been smart to build a tall pedestal for the sculpture in oder to truly appreciate its imposing beauty

      I noticed that too and I have to say I am also curious as to why they left that out. Looking at coins of Constantine I see him wearing either a laurel wreath or various types of diadems but all are behind and above his ears and well behind any of his front end hair that can be seen from ear to ear, however the locations of those slots are between the eyes and the ears, not above the ears and under the top part of the ears, so that kind of goes against the relief coin representations. Some 3D reconstruction before just added some hair in the areas of the slots, maybe it has also something to with with being a reused statue of Jupiter, but I don't expect them to have had the emperor with exposed slots like that in his time.

    Darius, researching some other coins, in the catalogue I came across a presentation medallion that may actually come from the unveiling of the statue! RIC VII 279 AE40 Gilded AE Rome mint. Reverse is Crispus holding a trophy in military dress presenting a Phoenix on an orb to Constantine in the pose and dress of the statue! The orb on the statue may have had a Victory or Phoenix on it originally. Constantine's empty military dress is leaning on his chair (or he's siting on it). Take a look at this coin!

      That would be fantastic. But, as I noted in other comments, the original pieces are in the museum- and it's their project and reconstruction. The basilica is governed by a different entity... So I think it's unlikely, at least for the moment.

    I can only agree with the antiquarians and art historians who believe that the reconstruction is a surprisingly clumsy and artless mistake. There are not many traces of an artist here. The face is bland and dead, the limbs look petrified (pun not intended, or maybe it is), the posture rough and the whole man seems lifeless. This is a piece of marble, nothing else.

    • @DariusArya

      It was not an easy project to create, even with all of the technology. Yes, I think there is room for improvement; I'm just happy they went through with the project, followed by accurate scientific study, scan of the original pieces, etc.

    • @jeff__w
      @jeff__w 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I guess I interpret the reconstruction as an attempt to show the existing pieces fitting together in the statue as a whole, the scale of the statue, its acrolithic construction, and so on, rather than as a reflection of its possible aesthetic qualities. Obviously we’d want those qualities to be evident, too, ideally, in such a reconstruction but I still view it as a success, albeit maybe a more limited one.

      ​​@@DariusAryaI don't know about statues of gods..but certainly images and statues of emperors were re-used for other emperors..check out Mary Beard's book on imperial iconography......and as with everything to do with the ancients I use the word " certain" with caution 😄

      @@DariusArya I did some research, this colossal of Constantine is a controversy and that is probably the reason there are only a couple remnants from the past. I think this statue might be Fantasy Art work? Congrats, Great Restoration of this Constantine The Great Statue.
