Lounging around

I need to replenish my stock of new photos.

 

In the meantime, here's another version of Oscar Wilde in Merrion Square, Dublin, looking across the road at the house where he grew up.

 

The statue was sculpted by Danny Osborne and unveiled in 1997. It's made up of a several exotic rock types, including larvikite (blue pearl granite) from the Oslo Fjord, green nephrite jade from Canada, pink thulite from Norway, and black Indian granite, all of which contirbutue to its distinctive colours.
