Artist
Leonida Caldesi
Leonida Caldesi is an Impressionism artist. 7 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Leonida Caldesi made photographs of classical sculptures in 1860. His images show pieces like *Torso of Cecrops* and *A Fragment of the Statue of Minerva*. These photos freeze ancient fragments in crisp detail. They sit between early photography and classic antiquities, letting you zoom in on weathered marble you’d miss in person. Next, tap *The Three Fates* to see another chiseled survivor from the same year.
