    The document discusses a marble sculpture of Manuel A. Zosa, who was a congressman representing Cebu for six terms, a lawyer, and dedicated public servant. Marble was used as the material for the sculpture because it is relatively soft when first quarried but becomes extremely hard over time, and its color can range from pure white to other tones. The sculpture was inspired by Greek sculptures, which commonly used marble and were typically an off-white color.

    formed as a result of changes brought about in the structure of
    sedimentary or igneous rocks by extreme pressure or heat. Marble
    was used because it’s relatively soft and easy to work when first
    quarried, it becomes extremely hard and dense with age. Marble
    differs from one variety to another, usually because of colour,
    texture, weathering, and chemical composition. Although famous for
    its pure white surface.
