Bigger than life size work cannot be made from live casts.
They are usually made by hand , at times with the help of
pantograph methods and experts that know how to work
them. If he cheated, it would have been found out by now.
There is some realism that the hands of an artists simply
can not do. As in some photo realism,shadows don't lie,
specially if there are millions of them, as the sun moves on.

The kind of monuments that Graham did can be done by

Sculptors like him are bamboozling the world over.
I meant that when he showed Age of Bronze, Rodin was accused of
