I have a friend who, when she still lived in the same town, took care of me having art in my house. She gave me this African statue. I feel bad about the missing bit here but can't remember if it came like this or if it broke when someone in the house (whose name I won't mention) dropped it. The piece you see here is about 2 inches long.
HMM!
The Madonna Statue is located in front of the Immaculate Conception Chapel at the end of Marfa Ridge road. It was built in 1870 with an accompanying chapel which, legend has it, was built by a fisherman in thanks for surviving when his boat capsized. The original chapel was at one point in danger of collapsing so a new one was built in 1961. This is an idyllic spot for those searching for some untouched countryside, and is often used for picnics.
Statue , Fortuna , Rotterdam
Ofcourse we can find the golden style statue of Fortuna at a casino.
I've used a dodge and burn tool to upgrade the contrasts of the statue against the dark building also to give it a more silver style.

These statues are part of an art exhibition in Budapest.
The New World Design for Contemporary Art presents almost 600sqm of the world of the Great War, which can be seen as the epoch that radically changed the world order of the time: the formerly stable empires have dissolved, culture and public thought have changed dramatically. World War II buried the old world, the result of a new world conflagration and then the Cold War. Europe was bleak in the twilight that the 20th century was dominated by America and Russia.
The exhibition takes visitors from happy peace to enthusiasm for war and bitter disappointment. It shows how the civilization of civilized and global warfare was fought, how the 19th century came to a standstill and the hinterland became the battlefield. The nature of war has changed: victory has now become a function of the amount of war material.

For 125 years on this plinth stood the statue of Edward Colston a Bristol born merchant, slave trader, Tory MP and philantropist. On 7 June 2020 during a protest following the death of George Floyd the statue was toppled and pushed into Bristol Harbour.
This is a statue at the Toledo Zoo, it is just beautiful. One of the largest and best done I have seen.
I start back to work tomorrow (Sunday) so won't be on too much over the next couple of days but will attempt to keep up in my early morning and late night quick comments sessions.
Thank you all for you visits and comments. They are appreciated.
For the Ohio Zoo's group, I understand it is not an official animal but posted as I thought people may want to see it. If you would like taken out please let me know.
So you have seen one part of my garden. This is another section and we have this enormous fish statue (Marlin) near the entrance to our house. It's not mine, we are just the custodians of it and I am not sure for how long. The owner and a friend lives in Hong Kong. It raises a lot of interest when people visit us (not at the moment though) some like it and others are not sure.
