Living Statues

Her carved eyeballs stared back at them with the uncanny blindness of statues, who seem always to be perceiving another dimension, where everything is statues.
~Angela Carter

    I'm quite impressed that such living statues can really hold their form for so long. These are all quite interesting.

    Couldn't help but wonder if anyone went up to the Spanish "statue" and moved a chess piece. I would certainly be tempted. ;-)
