I was thinking of my trip to Italy and came across this photograph I took when we toured a castle in the Tuscan Hills. The lion guarding the stairwell caught my eye.
It is not something you would see walking down the street in mainstreet America. An architect would probably never spec something like this to be commissioned for the their next masterpiece. We need to preserve these treasures of the past and appreciate the meaning behind them.
This would not be my style to work around when building my next house, but I can truly appreciate the craftmanship of the statue and psychology behind it.
Can you imagine being part of the set designing for Harry Potter movies? WOW.....What a thought!
