| timeless art
do you know any good examples of this? i was looking at a book of art and i seen a picture by a guy called galbriath i think and it looked like one of the guys is wearing a motorcycle helmet in 1773 or something but i can't find it again damn. there is another picture of a marble work called the three graces by antonio canova that is a beautiful portrait of the female body, dunno why there's three of them though that's probably some deep intellectual stuff, definitely timeless though. plus the best grace is grace kelly that time hasn't even arrived yet. anyone know the galbraith picture?

Loads of great stuff in there, well worth a trip.
