Art & design — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 12 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 100% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

Engagement
22 posts held, back to 25 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 9 pages of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 22 posts for this entry, the most recent from 11 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

The tomb of Pope Clement XIII Rezzonico in the Vaticanca. 1790, by Raphael Morghen, after Antonio Canova
Monument to Clement XIII, by Antonio Canova, 1792 It shows the pope kneeling in prayer with the tiara beside him, and to the left of the sarcophagus Religion dressed in sacerdotal garments; to the right, there is a semi-reclining funerary Genius. At the base are two crouching lions, one sleeping, the other vigilant. They are carved in travertine, while the rest of the monument is of white Carrara marble. With it, …
In addition to a spontaneous ability of making his essentially classical inspiration conform with Christian themes and subjects, Canova's inventive happiness is expressed in a perfect technical-interpretative symbiosis also with studies from real life, such as, in this case, for the Pope and for the lions. Heartfelt nobility emanates from the figure of Pope Clement XIII, the face bears a very close resemblance. The …
The severe allegorical personification of Religion, standing on the left, is the only element that has not been perfectly blended, also because of the excessive size of the cross. On the right, in place of the Christian image of a frightened skeleton so popular with medieval and Baroque artists, he shows a beautiful mourning youth with a turned-down torch, the Genius of Death, of Apollonian beauty, who rests delicate…
Tomb of Clement XIV, by Antonio Canova, 1787 Canova laid out the content in a similar way to how he also designed the Tomb of Clement XIII. Canova used carrara marble and lumachella in order to complete this work, with the former being his preference for most of his career. He places Clement XIV directly at the top of the sculpture, with one arm outstretched, as he looks down on us all. The main subject of any tomb …

Showing the 12 most recent of 22 posts we hold for @ThirstForBeauty. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Forward network
Republished by
Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
Appears in Telegram’s recommendations for other channels
The reverse of the list above, and a different kind of signal. This does not require this channel to have ever been asked about directly — each row below is a channel we DID ask Telegram about, whose Telegram-generated list happened to include this one. A channel can appear here with an empty list above it, because being named by someone else’s query is independent of having been queried itself.
