Vitruvian Collection "Pleased To Meet You" Statue


The Vitruvian Collection is a series of sculptures that celebrate the human form as well as the human spirit. Inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, each sculpture is individually hand cast and hand finished by experienced artisans.

Hand-kissing is a ritual of greeting and respect. It is initiated by the person receiving the greeting by holding out her/his hand with the palm facing downward. The person kissing bows towards the offered hand and (symbolically) touches the knuckles with his lips, while lightly holding the offered hand.

This cold cast resin statue, called "Pleased To Meet You" is of a face kissing a hand. Measuring 13 inches tall, 4 1/2 inches wide and 6 1/2 inches deep, the white hand and face really stand out from the heavy black base, and show wonderful detail. The statue is a great conversation starter, and is sure to attract attention.
