Carl Milles | The Hand of God, 1950

The Hand of God was one of Swedish sculptor🎨 Carl Milles' (1875-1955) last works before his death.

He is looking upwards and his body is tense, with fingers splayed. The man is balancing on the index finger and thumb of the large hand, a feat that seems difficult enough in itself, but his exertion is of another nature.
