Artist's Comments

There's a sorrow in his eyes
Like the angel made of tin
What will happen if I try
To place another heart in him.

Tucked away behind bushes and trees, tumbledown gravestones and broken down monuments was this little gem. Out of place in some ways, but in others perfectly in keeping. I have no idea who made this or when, or who for - but I love it. Sometimes worth going off the beaten track a little.

Highgate Cemetery, London.

What a lucky find, this feels so much more personal as I can only assume someone made it. Beautiful

That's amazing, I've never seen anything like it but it's lovely. Someone must've made it.

Now that is an interesting piece. I guess the original artist not to be found, it is good you were able to pass it on to us. Hmm. I always like a sense of irony, which I get from this creation. To see a piece, then another, and an idea forms, and other pieces added to create this. It is a beautiful piece to share for others to see, like many of your other pictures.

Creation is the Meaning of Life. We make dreams into reality. We do not give it purpose, we do not give it meaning, we do not plan it's worth. Like children, we create it, and we let life shape what it becomes.

Thankyou for that, I did get the feeling that somebody had clearly put a lot of work into this and it deserved to be bought out of the shadows again and seen. In some ways it's nice that the memorial to whoever this was is again doing its job and reminding us of that person. Perhaps it's nice that it's been seen by more people than was ever intended.
