This image really stuck out to me because I really enjoy the geometric shapes that create these figures. These were created around 4500 BCE. They are in good condition for how old the figures are. Because the artist used cylinders to create the body, it really adds a lot of volume to the sculpture. It has a lot of depth and form.
There is a level of sophistication in the tools they use to carve these figures. They positions that these figures are in are sitting which could maybe show what they were sitting on during that time. There is also a sort of thoughtfulness or weariness look on their faces which could represent the mood of the artist.
