Sculpture
I'd just like to know if "sculptoric" is, in fact, a real word. My dictionaries don't have it and most of the webpages in which I have found it are Spanish (I wonder if this could be a "new", made up word)

MERRIAM WEBSTERS:
Main Entry: sculp·tur·al
Pronunciation: \'sk&lp-ch&-r&l, \'sk&lp-shr&l
Function: adjective
1 : of or relating to sculpture
2 : resembling sculpture : SCULPTURESQUE
- sculp·tur·al·ly adverb
ps. it\'s probably a bad translation of \"escultórico\", which does exist in Spanish.

pps. I assume the original doc is in Spanish? The word you asked about is so close to \"escultórico\" that I\'m guessing it came from Spanish...?
