Sergio Furnari said he thought the lifesize sculpture – which no one commissioned – would raise ‘millions’ of dollars

To add injury to insult, Furnari recently broke his foot working on the statue, after tripping over a roll of tape in his studio.

“Is it cursed? Maybe. I don’t know,” he told the Guardian.

    It’s also just objectively a horrible statue. The body proportions are just awful. You can tell he’s spent 90 percent of his time and effort on the head and just draped the body in baggy clothing to hide his work.

      Hey, give the man a break. It may be a terrible, ugly sculpture of a nasty, hateful man but he only wants a few million dollars for it. It probably took him days to make!
