Verdigris, a captivating patina that tells tales of time and history. From the depths of the ocean to the grandeur of ancient civilizations, its presence is felt in various forms. In the somber depths of the RMS Titanic wreckage, a cigar case recovered by CS Mackay-Bennett bears witness to verdigris' enduring allure. Despite being submerged for decades, this artifact still carries remnants of its once-gleaming bronze exterior. Traveling to France, we find ourselves in Nice, where a replica of Michelangelo's statue of David stands proudly. Over time, it has gracefully adorned this masterpiece with hints of turquoise hues, adding an ethereal touch to its timeless beauty. Further along the French Riviera lies Saint Tropez and Igor Mitoraj's Hermanos sculpture. As verdigris slowly embraces these bronze figures, it creates an intriguing contrast between their weathered surfaces and their eternal message frozen in time. Delving into history again, we encounter DDE-90029056 - a cryptic code etched onto an unknown relic. Its significance remains shrouded in mystery as verdigris delicately blankets its surface like nature reclaiming forgotten secrets. The magnificent Statue of one of the four triumphal quadriga horses at San Marco Square showcases verdigris' transformative power on bronze sculptures. Through centuries past and present alike, it adds depth and character to these majestic creatures frozen mid-stride. Mesmerizing us further back in time is another bronze marvel from Miseno: The Emperor Nerva statue. Verdigris adorns his regal figure like whispers from antiquity echoing through generations. Venturing even further into history brings us to Mesopotamia's guardian goddess LAMA figurine dating back thousands of years ago. Covered in layers upon layers of rich green patina known as verdigris; she silently watches over her domain throughout eternity.
