A close-up view captures a section of the white marble sculpture "Perseus and Medusa" by Laurent Marqueste, dated 1903, located in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark. The image features the lower torso and left leg of a recumbent nude figure, partially covered by intricately carved drapery that flows across the abdomen and upper thigh, revealing a navel. Prominently positioned is the raised right foot and lower leg of another, or the same, figure, adorned with a detailed winged sandal (talaria) on the ankle and heel. The sculpture is rendered with smooth, polished surfaces and illuminated by a warm, yellowish light that creates distinct shadows and highlights, emphasizing its three-dimensional form. The artist's signature, "L. MAROUQLSTE 1903," is visible on the base of the sculpture.
