Gorgeous textures and colours Andrew. I love your comment about the touch of passing hands. ;)
Thanks Roger, it is probably one of the most life-like and tactile sculptures I’ve seen

a really wonderful image
Thank you Tina, it was one of those days when the bad weather made it an effort to go out, but we had to because we were on holiday. But somehow Villa Cimbrone was even more magical; all to ourselves with this eerie mist and absolute silence.
