For my anatomy class we have special permission to draw the statues in the animals gallery of the Vatican Museum. I have been going there about once a week since February. We are studying animal anatomy in the context of Orwells "Animal Farm". Its an interesting study of human characteristics imposed on animals. The gallery at the vatican is great it has both wild and domestic animals, carved from some awesome pieces of stone. The pictures don't do justice.
