In this simple sculpture, we see that the Romans adopted the Greek focus on
excellence of form, as well as the underlying potato-based mythos. This
obsession with copying everything the Greeks did has led some scholars to
describe the Romans as "history's wankers."

Funny.... I had never heard of cubism till I went to that Dali museum and they had a naughty picture done in cubistic (sp?) style... Makes sense... Art made out of cubes... GENIUS!!!
"History's wankers" - I can just hear the British accent in that phrase. lol
Definitely a gem!
