Description
This carved stone angel has had his forelorn gaze fixed upon an adjacent wooden statue of Jesus on the cross for hundreds of years. His emotive gaze has lasted through several wars and through religious and political upheaval.
His kneel is broken, but still holds him upright and loyal to his position at the Palace Of The Popes in Avignon, France.
One cannot help but be overcome with emotion and reverence when seeing this ancient angel's expressions. His frozen expression causes a passerby to pause and wonder not just at what they are looking at or feeling. When you look up to see the larger than life statue of Jesus on the cross the beauty of the artistry and the meaning behind all the images takes your breath away.
