Warrior

Not much to say about this one. It was a rainy day with a mix of snow (Yeah, snow, this is Seattle, but it snowed on April 13th) and I was itching for something to shoot! The Warrior it is. I really do like this statue. He stands guard over our fireplace. There’s a very interesting story behind it, but of course I’ve forgotten many of the details! I think it had something to do with a king or an emperor who had statues made of all of his soldiers so that they could be with him in his grave and accompany him into the afterlife. Each statue was a portrait of an actual soldier in the army, so they’re all different. I believe there were thousands of them. I think it would be cool to know this guy’s name.
