How Can I Only Chose One?


Look at this Lamassu! This Human–headed winged lion (lamassu), 883–859 B.C., is from northern Mesopotamia. Their purpose was to guard the city from dangers or evil spirits.


Self–Portrait with a Straw Hat ( The Potato Peeler)- Van Gogh. 
I just thought this one was cool. It was one of his many self-portraits and in this one he explores "Neo-Impressionist technique and color theory" while using himself as a model (MET).

This was used as a prize in an athletic competition. The Greeks valued athleticism, fitness, and the youthfully perfect form of an individual.

Contest Entries: I couldn't chose one! I picked some good ones, some bad ones, and some embarrassing ones that should have never seen the light of day. This was a group effort among Bryan Filetto, Chris Condon, Chris Tursellino, and myself, Nicole Horn.
