Prayer #09347

The Story

A praying cemetery angel bows her head in mourning and contemplation while holding a wreath, a cemetery symbol of heavenly bliss. The circle a wreath makes also represents eternal life as well.

This aged white marble sculpture has been out in the elements for a while. You can see the black tarnish along the edges of high symmetrical wings rising above her. It’s air and rain pollution that does this, and it can also soften the details in the marble. over time.

Location: a cemetery in Pennsylvania.
