This photo shows a man in a wool coat and hat standing beside a large stone statue. The statue is of a woman with a simple dress, her arms resting on her belly. The man’s hand touches the statue’s hand, and he looks up at her face. The statue’s smooth, rounded shapes contrast with the rough texture of the stone. The photo feels like it was taken in a quiet moment, maybe to show how the statue looks in real life. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this statue in person.
