There was a speck on the drawing when I took the photos... oops. Y'all should ignore that If you are not familiar with Classical Art, this is the Capitoline Horse. It is named for the museum in which it is housed. Little is known of the horse, except that it once held a rider. It is made of bronze.

Wow, first blog since november. Have I been too busy? No. Have I not had anything to say? No. I've had things to mention, not big things but things. I've been letting thing slide too much haven't I.
