I think the large metaphoric bronze hand was named "Struggle"
His brain never seemed to slow. Extremely opinionated , he had designed a social system based on consistencies he discovered throughout various cultures . These annotated portraits are just one example of his breadth .of skill and thought. Like Dore' he was a child prodigy .Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
