These shapes or figures at first seem so like angels, then like souls whose buried bodies still lie beneath the street. We know the shapes are the figures that constantly floated throught the Roman imagination, carrying their private grief and their public hints of earlier gods and goddesses. Stephen Brigidi has photographed them brilliantly, so the gods and goddesses stand out from the brown or blue walls of desire." ; VG/VG
