The artist/sculptor made the men true to size of how an older man would look. Doryphorus Spear Bearer and David are very much alike. The are almost identical. They both are of men who have the perfect body. Both of the sculptors over exaggerated how the human body is supposed to look. They gave these men great bodies that people would be so envious of. In reality, bodies like these do not show up very often. The best figure out of each of these is David. It is the best because he really is perfect.

It is not one of my favorites because it is of an older man and it does not have a real point to it.

While the other sculptor and artist made the men true to size, but gave then some definition. The women poses were far from defined. You could barely make out any part of their body definition. The artist did this because maybe they thought that the womans bo...
