Description

When archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann discovered the ruins of Troy, he unearthed a lot of rusted, ancient shields believed to have been buried by the defeated Troyans in a symbolic act of admission of their defeat. I found an old photograph of Schliemann's discovery and tried to restore it a bit. UF3 plus some pp in Photoshop (the mosaic effect on the bigger shield.)

Muy ilustrativa historia Ersi, este es un excelente y muy original trabajo, tanto por las formas como por la vista superior en aproximadamente unos 45 grados, la diagonal y la profundidad son muy buenos. Tiene una muy agradable combinaci de colores...!!

Love your piece of history behind the image. Those wonderful rusty colors and textures are so appealing, the glow takes me back to ancient times. Beautiful and well composed!
