I´ve been always fascinated by the mesmerizing elegance of classical veiled sculptures.

This technique’s astonishing and delicate realism, transforms solid marble into an organic and ethereal expression of beauty and emotions.

The marble veil is rendered in such a way that it appears almost translucent, highlighting the anatomical details of the human body beneath.

The veil acts as a metaphorical barrier, hinting at the unseen qualities and secrets that lie beneath the surface. It encourages viewers to contemplate the enigmatic stories these sculptures tell.

Experimenting through translucent cloth simulations inside c4d I tried paying my small homage to the great masters of this technique.

The tradition of marble-veiled statues expanded from ancient Greek and Roman classical sculptures to the more contemporary Renaissance and Neoclassical periods.

Artists such as Michelangelo and Antonio Corradini drew inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, incorporating veiled figures into their masterpieces.
