Note:

At times quality and detail can be sacrificed for sheer mass, however that is not the case with this work. The artist has left no angle unfinished, with the utmost care he was able to evoke the warmth and affection shared between a mother and her children. It is clear that the scale he chose to work in was meant to emphasize the importance of this relationship.
