Gruesome Statue

New York, NY - Catherine Penfold-Waxman - Thursday, April 6th, 2006 : goo

[previous] :: [next]

During yesterday's snow shower, I found myself in Central Park. Despite the bizarro weather, the park was quite busy with workers preparing it for the summer. This statue caught my eye. It was just so gothically gory and gruesome, with eagles tearing open a ram, who is pleading with its eyes for help. It wasn't the cold that made me shudder.

what a thing to discover going on in the secret garden

Peter: 6th Apr 2006 - 15:09 GMT

wtf?! thats totally goth. that totally beats out the weird statue at The Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine, which i thought was really creepy... til i saw this one.

Peter: 6th Apr 2006 - 15:10 GMT

also: i love how your shot is all gray and rainy. perfect...

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: 6th Apr 2006 - 15:20 GMT

I love that trippy statue at St John the Divine. We used to go to V &T pizza opposite and I'd always have an Alice in Wonderland moment with the statue.

yes , very cool. Too bad eagles dont take down big prey , they eat mostly fish and are scavengers.. Now if the ram was dead and they were fighting over it .. Something of a fancyfull work , creepy though in the dark i bet .

jack: 6th Apr 2006 - 17:25 GMT

sometimes i feel like the ram. but most times i feel like the eagle. but i'd rather feel like a kid again.

drea: 6th Apr 2006 - 20:23 GMT

oohh i like the picture! You can see the rain the shot too!

drea: do you mind if i use it as my laptop background?

GGP: 6th Apr 2006 - 22:58 GMT

the sculptor spared no effort on detail--every feather is so tactile.

cerniagigante: 7th Apr 2006 - 00:03 GMT

Very fascist... I like the dropping snow, it gives life to the eagles... The ram is dead though, still warm, but dead. Eagles won't feast on a live ram, even fascist eagles. I've seen many statues in CP, but I've missed this one... I'll look for it next time ;-)

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: 7th Apr 2006 - 03:17 GMT

Drea, I'm glad that you like it enough to want to use it. Please feel free.
Apparently it is a goat (according to peters link). The statue is on paralell with 68th street, west of the middle of the park.

What's the Frequency Kenneth?: 14th May 2006 - 20:19 GMT

Eagle and a GOAT HEAD. I think it's got something to do with arcane symbology or something. Prolly something Masonic or Bohemian.
