Lorenzo Quinn is certainly very compelling. His ‘Support’ sculpture in Venice in 2017 was a huge success!

Hi Janet,
“pretty good” is not sufficient praise for Lorenzo Quinn. Excellent.
Notice the lines and wrinkles ! So realistic.
Seeing these was the peak of my 3-week stay in Venice, my 4th visit to Venezia !

Desperate to see these hands in Venice, I made the aforementioned LONG WALK from the Train Station to the Arsenal, but in vain.
So far I’d seen only a photo and a passing glimpse from a vaporetto ferry boat.
My grandaughter, however, a whiz at technology, got us there on the correct vaporetto stopping at the upper Arsenal stop, from which we walked and luckily saw these magnificent hands. (UP CLOSE/ NO VISITORS ? ).
That was the best ending to my 3-week stay there in Venice. (my fourth visit ).
