Casts from Antique Sculpture: The Parthenon is a 1892 ink by James Henry Moser, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image features a black and white lithograph of two ancient sculptures. The larger sculpture is a reclining figure, while the smaller one is a standing figure. Both are depicted in a realistic style. The lithograph is detailed, with visible textures and shading that give the sculptures a sense of depth and dimensionality. The artist's use of light and shadow adds to the overall sense of realism. The image is a great example of the artist's skill in capturing the beauty of ancient sculpture.
