Although this could very well be a picture of me finding a new treasure at a favorite nursery, it's actually an illustration by David Catrow for a children's book called Plantzilla.

Wednesday Vignette
Seems like it takes forever for the lights to change around here!
I mean, really!

She is one of two dancing Greek Maidens by Italian sculptor Antonio Canova (I think they might be copies) that stand at the Division Street entrance to Wright Park in Tacoma. Placed in 1891, they have been nicknamed Annie and Fannie.
Haha - poor dear... Judging from the cobwebs on her hair, it appears she has waited far too long.
ReplyDeleteGreat statue - who is she?

DeleteBut at least it's not raining...
ReplyDeleteI think you ought to invite her over for tea. She would love to stay in your garden for while, at least till the light changes.
ReplyDeleteI always wondered what those big statues were thinking; left alone day after day.
ReplyDeleteHa! The cobwebs are a nice touch!
ReplyDeleteShe brushes her hair as often as I do.
ReplyDeleteI hope she doesn't have a red light camera hidden in her hair.
ReplyDeleteIsn't she pretty!
