how did they get the clothes on the statues? if it’s photoshop, then it’s really good.

Loved it. Brings ancient times current. The figures look like people we see today. Really wonderful idea.

They must have had someone wear the clothes and pose in same position as the statue to get the shapes right. If not, then their photoshop skills are even more amazing.

No need to photoshop the clothes on them. You can cut the clothes to half from the sides, so you can put them on the statues (literally!) with only the front half of it facing the camera and take your photos. just saying … ;)

Neat.
Originally these statues would have been painted with natural looking colours.
Pity they didn’t do that too….. :)

Interesting how natural the statues look with clothing on, normally as statues they look too perfect to be real people, but you could see these on any campus today.
