Those of us who know her, know how wonderful Lonemum's work is. The sculptures she's shared with us here are truly impressive. :yes:

I was wandering abound one of my local beauty spots recently and was looking at some of the sculptures that have been added to one of the picnic areas. While some of the pieces I rather liked, others I thought were less than impressive.

I'm not sure I like this sculpture, but I do like the workmanship. It's called, bizarrely, Hunter, Wife and Boar.

Hunter, wife and boar

Detail I thought might be important, so here's Boar & Hunter

Boar and hunter

and Boar & Wife

Boar and wife

Note the tear dripping from the Wife's eye.

I'm not sure I understand what the artist is trying to portray: is the Wife sad her husband the Hunter is going to kill the Boar? Or maybe I'm off the mark and the Wife is really married to the Boar, which would account for her tears when the Hunter turns up to kill her husband? Let's not do the beastiality thing please...
So yes I'm a bit confused, but I love the way it looks.

The other side of the coin for me is the Giant: I'm sorry, but I really don't like this at all.

Of course I'm no authority so I'm kind of hoping Lonemum might cast an expert eye and let us know what's good and bad here. ;)

Whatever I hope at least some of you find these interesting.
