Picture of the Day

Picture of the day The Apennine Colossus is a stone statue, approximately 11 metres (36 feet) tall, in the estate of Villa Demidoff (originally Villa di Pratolino) in Vaglia in Tuscany, Italy. A personification of the Apennine Mountains, the colossal figure was created by Giambologna, a Flemish-born Italian sculptor, in the late 1580s. The statue has the appearance of an elderly man crouched at the shore of a lake, squeezing the head of a sea monster through whose open mouth water originally emanated into the pond in front of the statue. The colossus is depicted naked, with stalactites in the thick beard and long hair to show the metamorphosis of man and mountain, blending his body with the surrounding nature. It is made of stone and plaster and the interior houses a series of chambers and caves on three levels. Initially, the back of the statue was protected by a structure resembling a cave, which was demolished around 1690 by the sculptor Giovanni Battista Foggini, who built a statue of a dragon to adorn the back of the colossus. The Italian sculptor Rinaldo Barbetti renovated the statue in 1876.Sculpture credit: Giambologna; photographed by Rhododendrites

Barnstars

The Invisible Barnstar This is for the work you do to the various Wikiprojects you are involved in, which nobody really seems to recognize, for mastering the ridiculously complicated art of uploading images, and for being an expert on Coldplay. Hell, you're not actively destroying WP are you? That almost deserves a BS in its own right, Lord Spongefrog, (I am the Czar of all Russias!) 15:10, 12 September 2009 (UTC) The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar For being willing to forgive me after I went bananas and accused him of being a sock, I award Coldplay Expert this barnstar as a token of thanks and of admiration. A little insignificant talk to me!

Enjoy! --[midnight comet] [contribs] 02:01, 23 October 2009 (UTC) The Socratic Barnstar You never cease to impress me with your well thought-out arguments, which show a great deal of clue for a relatively new user. In particularly, your edit to Katerenka's RfA showed you aren't afraid to be bold, even at an RfA. I wish I could do that. If I did something like that, I'd probably end up retracting it and apologising if I've caused offence :). Keep it up. You're making progress, and you'll be an admin yourself someday, Lord Spongefrog, (I am the Czar of all Russias!) 18:35, 25 October 2009 (UTC) The Purple Star For all your good contributions to Wikipedia.
