I får lige et billede af
min yndlings kirkegårdsengel nogensinde - Dødens Engel.
Dødens Engel sidder
på graven af Ulysses "Buck" Grant, Jr., søn af
Præsident Ulysses Simpson Grant. Skulpturen er lavet i 1912 af
den amerikanske kunstner Henry Augustus Lukeman. I virkeligheden
holder englen en visnende lilje i sin højre hånd, men
folk har for vane at stikke levende blomster i hånden på
ham i stedet for. |
I want to show you a picture of
my favorite cemetery angel ever - the Angel of Death.
The Angel of Death sits on the
grave of Ulysses "Buck" Grant, Jr., son of President
Ulysses Simpson Grant. The sculpture was made in 1912 by the American
artist Henry Augustus Lukeman. The angel actually holds a wilting
lily in his right hand, but passersby tend to want to stick fresh
flowers into his hand instead. |
