Broken Angel

Before such a thing as security was understood, Bonaventure Cemetery was subject to much vandalism. Many of the beautiful statues such as this one were vandalized and trashed. I can't understand it and don't condone it, but it happens. This one, standing next to Gracie's monument (a life size bust of a six year old child who died of pneumonia), has been sadly disfigured, its wings broken, fingers broken off, etc. The mind of someone of such a low and crude order that could do such a thing both saddens and enrages me.

Thanks again for looking. I did this one in black and white, which suits my mind whenever I go near this and other desecrations.
