Angel - between light and faith

Posted by Ize (Viseu, Portugal) on 5 July 2008 in Miscellaneous.

These might look like a very dark theme for a set of photos, but graveyards or cemeteries are much more than just spaces for burials. Some bear part of a place history, being the last home of important individuals who contributed, with their work, to enrich the city, country and people’s lives. But in cemeteries we can find as well amazing pieces of art built in honor of those loved ones who have already departed.
I liked this photo because it underlines, in a curious way, what people look and search on religion: for light (guidance) and faith.
