#FotoVorschlag: Näher dran geht's nicht // Can't get any closer

Näher dran an die #TerrakottaArmee kommt man nicht und sieht so die unglaublichen Details - jeder #Krieger ist einzigartig, bis hin zu den Schuhsohlen! Auch wenn die Farben mittlerweile kaum noch zu sehen sind, hat mich das sehr beeindruckt. Es zeigt aber auch, dass auch damals schon größenwahnsinnige Spinner an der Macht waren 🙄 // You can't get any closer to the #TerracottaArmy than this and marvel at the wonderful details - each #warrior is unique, down to the soles of his shoes! The colours are mostly faded now but still, I was deeply impressed. It also shows that megalomaniac leaders aren't a recent development. 🙄

A close-up, back view shows a partially excavated terracotta warrior statue. The warrior wears segmented armour across its back and shoulders, fastened with small, raised rivets. Traces of faded orange paint are visible on the lower back armour. The statue's head has a detailed hairstyle pulled up into a topknot. The lower body and legs are less detailed and appear unfinished. The statue rests on a plain, rectangular support. A blurred background suggests a museum display setting.

Caccia nemici House / Casa Caccianemici for #windowfriday

Some parts of the house date back to the 13th century, others to the 15th. It also housed a the medieval Passapoveri towerm From the fresco above the window it says 1926 so we can presume it has had some renovations over the years!

An Etruscan rhyton in the shape of a dog's head, terracotta, 475 BCE.

I had to look 'rhyton' up: It's an ancient, animal-shaped vessel used for pouring liquids. Since they normally have an opening at each end, this rhyton is actually upside-down in the photo. In any case, the potter who made it was a very fine artist.
