Yesterday I mentioned the statues that had appeared in front of our building.  Today I present you with 2000 more words on the subject (assuming the value of a picture has not changed over time).

Graven Ravens 1

Graven Ravens 2

You can click on the pictures to see larger versions of the same.

That's definately the better of all the statues. This one at least is creative, unlike the stack-of-cubes, the mini-doubledecker-pink-bus or the legs-with-wings-on-top-of-roman-columns!
I never noticed the cell phone until you pointed it out in your earlier post. That allows me to relate to it :)

Upon closer look, I have to say this statue sort of reminds me of an office social ladder.

The whipping boy at the bottom has to cary his boss on his back, while the boss can just sit back and chat on his cell phone.

At least that's how I look at it!

Her cell phone - unless I misread those bumps on the chest.

Ah, I guess I didn't look that closely!

:P
