The effect is much more striking than I had anticipated after reading the headline.
Body language I had assumed was artistic, elevated, and aimed at an audience long dead turns out to be body language I am completely familiar with in the world I live in.
Does this mean contemporary ads are drawing (consciously or un-) on classical poses?
Or that body language (at least among europeans through the last several centuries) is not as variable as I might have supposed?
Or that putting clothes on a statue distorts (rather than, as I am supposing, reveals)?
Or something else?
