The Largest skeleton I have ever seen in my whole entire life!!

I'm sharing with you guys a real Masterpiece, one of the largest skeleton I have ever seen in my life, one of the most amazing art is "The Calamita Cosmica ".

"The Calamita Cosmica" or "Cosmic Magnet" is a sculpture by Gino De Dominicis, made secret in 1988, nine years before his own death and preserved in the former church of the Santissima Trinità in Annunziata in Foligno (Umbria-Italy).

History:

Made secretly around 1988, the work was presented in 1990 at the Contemporary Art Magazine Center in Grenoble, France. He was again exhibited six years later in the courtyard of the Capodimonte palace in Naples and still in the Versailles palace in Paris, at the Mole vanvitelliana in Ancona, at the Duomo square in Milan, at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgium and at MAXXI in Rome . In 2011 it was purchased by the Foligno Savings Bank Foundation to be placed in the central nave of the former church of the Most Holy Trinity in Annunziata, recently renovated.

Description :

The work is 24 m long and represents a large human skeleton, precise in the anatomy, with the addition of a large nose (or bird's beak) on the face. The skeleton is stretched on its back and holds a golden iron Stick in balance on the last phalanx of the middle finger of the right hand.
The Stick represents the magnet that connects the skeleton to the cosmic world.
