NOTES
The clothes and shoes worn by the Charlie Chaplin sculpture are original work clothes dating back to around the 1920s, worn by workers in New York (USA)
The Pithecoid hominids were constructed using real skeletons as references on a one-to-one scale. The skin is made of silicone rubber and the hair is Canadian musk ox, implanted one by one; it is the only type of living animal hair that can be matched to prehistoric hair.
