The Terracotta maiden is spectacular - do you know any more about her?
ReplyDeleteI've never actually visited the botanical gardens in New York but it looks rather spectacular in regards to the scenery and aquisition of particularly significant sculptures. Keep up the great work, hopefully I will get to visit one day =)
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff to have! The above all sculptures are so beautifully and meticulously made! I really loved the this view of this garden. Anyway, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAll that's missing are some teak benches next to the statues so you can sit and reflect :)
