Happy to be a part of the alphabet crazy challenge.

This is my contribution to Alibbs alphabet crazy  challenge

A is for Art.  Art is eternal.  It comes in countless forms whatever we choose to indulge in.  I chose sculpture.  This is a poor copy of Paolina Borghese as victorious Venus but I was not interested in what it represented.

We were holidaying in Italy and there on the road side vendors were selling these sculptures.  We were warned that we should bargain,  I also knew it was not pure marble but made from soft stone.  I bargained and got it for 50, 000 Liras  Those days it meant just Rs. 2500/-  I do not know the prevailing conversion rate.

I gifted it to my niece who was eyeing it after it stayed with me for years.
