Beautiful picture. That statue is incredible. Where is this?
:iconerzebetebathory:
A cemetery in Massachusetts. I think there are only five in the country, can't remember though.
:iconwhatimagination:
Very cool! Here's an article that mentions four Weeping Angel statues here in Texas (three in the actual article and another in a reader's comment at the end)- [link]

Larger image of the one I found in the Calvary Cemetery in Grayson County, Texas - [link]

And one in New Orleans - [link]

With yours that makes six! I wonder how many more are out there?

Thank you. This sculpture has intrigued me for a while. I wonder who the "original" sculptor was? The one in Houston is credited to Frank Teich, I wonder if he was ever in Massachusetts? I think I'll research this some more, and see if I an find the connection between the two sculptors.

Very interesting - the one in Houston done by Teich (a German sculpture that settled in Texas and became quite famous) was done 10 years after the one done by Story. I've found mention of 13 of these weeping angel statues scattered around the US, plus one in the UK and one in Costa Rica. Brings to mind the phrase about imitation and flattery. Anyway, I'll stop rambling on about this now... :D

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there.
