The last one is my favorite sculpture, except for the tragic sense I have that he is being squeezed by a snake. For some reason #17 was the one that I sunk most deeply into. Can't say why, exactly. There is just something to it that drew me in.<br /><br />(So weird about the Google search you mentioned in comments to me!)Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8855510751016957422.post-795517772984500932012-07-18T06:50:30.123+02:002012-07-18T06:50:30.123+02:00More lions than I've ever seen in my life.
