Cristiano Ronaldo bust creator: "Not even Jesus pleased everyone"
Emanuel Santos, told Globo Esporte: "It's impossible to please the Greeks and the Trojans"
The sculptor who designed the Cristiano Ronaldo bronze bust at Madeira airport which has been widely mocked across the internet has spoken about his work.
Emanuel Santos, told Globo Esporte: “It's impossible to please the Greeks and the Trojans. Not even Jesus pleased everyone.
“This is a matter of taste, it's not as simple as it seems. I have seen the work of great artists that follow this parameter. What matters is the impact this work generated.
"There is always the possibility of producing something that looks different, I was already prepared for all of that. I used some photos of Cristiano Ronaldo that I found on the internet as a base, not one photo specifically. I put the photos by my side and started working on the bust.”
