and we only know them

when they are gone.”

  1. Dearest Patty
    What beautiful statuary in this cemetary – we don’t see this on new graves anymore – not in NZ anyway.
    My favourite is the crouching angel with the beautiful large wings – I would love to have her watching over me!!
    Hope all is well with you, so nice to see you met up with Jan – you are two of my fave blogging friends!!!
    Love to you

    Thanks for posting all the cemetery angels. They are simply beautiful, and I save each and every one. Made a sympathy card using one, and it turned out awesome. Love all of them.

  13. Oh what fabulous statues! I cannot imagine all the time that went into carving them! It’s amazing the detail that they got! I would have been running around like crazy trying to photograph them all! I especially love the one that is kneeling with her wings behind her. Can we use these in quilties and collages that we sell? Just want to ask before I do.

  24. Hi dear one! I had to think about you the other day… there’s a large cathedral in ‘s Hertogenbosch’, a city in the Netherlands. It was completely cleaned and renovated – that took a few years, and to top it off they placed another statue along with the ‘clean’ ones… it’s an angel with a cellphone! I don’t have a good photo myself (although ‘Den Bosch’ is not far away from where I live) but on this blog you can see a good photo (click on it to enlarge)
