I think that carving even though conceived of for a nobel cause is a huge eyesore! I wonder if they even contemplated any other possible sculptures? I think it would be better if they just made a sculpture of Alexandros on top of Bukephalas, but on a smaller scale that can still be seen from a distance. I think a HUGE head has very little artistic qualities.

Anyways just my opinion.
