Monomad: Close Up of an Angel

The somber expression and weathered details of this small cherub statue drew me in immediately. I felt the emotion and also appreciated the creative efforts that went into crafting this amazing statue. Something that could stand the tests of time, slowly aging with the weather yet still remaining the same—a mood that never changes as this angel stands waiting to usher in the dearly departed to another beginning. The monochrome accentuating the distinct features of the face, the wings, and the clasped hands all appear like flesh and blood turned to stone.
