The use of marble adds an ethereal touch to the artwork, enhancing its elegance and timelessness. As light dances upon its surface, it illuminates the delicate features and brings out their inherent beauty. This piece serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy and Europe as a whole.
