Sometimes when people want someone to be remembered as more than they were - or better, or just "larger than life" - the easiest way is to have their likeness done; in a painting or, better still, a sculpture. Anything from 1.5 or 2 x life-size - to hundreds of feet tall! This quiz is about some of these larger-than-life sculptures around the world, both ancient and modern, in some cases no longer existing ... see how much you know about these bits of big art!

Questions are not short (do not take this quiz if you dislike long questions!) and info from several internet sources, including Wikipedia, and a recent UK TV documentary on a similar subject.
