Contemporary stone sculptures, Mahabalipuram
Marble is a metamorphic rock derived from
limestone, composed mostly of calcite (a crystalline form of calcium
carbonate, CaCO3). The original source of the parent limestone is the
seabed deposition of calcium carbonate in the form of microscopic animal
skeletons or similar materials. Marble is formed when the limestone is
transformed by heat and pressure after being overlain by other
materials. The finest marbles for sculpture have no or few stains,
though natural stains can be incorporated into the work itself.
Among the commonly available stones, only marble has a slight
translucency i.e. subsurface scattering that is comparable to that of
human skin. It is this translucency that gives a marble sculpture a
visual depth beyond its surface and this evokes a certain realism when
used for figurative works. Marble also has the advantage that, when
first quarried, it is relatively soft and easy to work, refine, and
polish. As the finished marble ages, it becomes harder and more durable.
Preference to the cheaper and less translucent limestone is based
largely on the fineness of marble's grain, which enables the sculptor to
render minute detail in a manner not always possible with limestone. In
contrast to limestone, marble is also extremely weather-resistant. As a
result, surface changes due to the immediate environment are not always
visible to the naked eye. This feature can pose challenges when dating
ancient works.
