Oh, she looks so sad.

[Mags]

How sweet!

[Kathy]

A good name for the sculpture.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good shot- nice job in capturing the peaceful stance of the statue.

[Christina]

Lovely sculpture - I like the intention

[Diana]

A fabulous capture Kathy, such a beautiful sculpture albeit a tad sad looking.

[Wylie]

How lovely and very Gauguin. I don't remember seeing her on my past visits. Are they Wollemi pines in background?

[Issi Bannerman]

Beautiful!

[Kathy A]

@pusspup she has been there for years but the gardens are do big I haven’t seen her for a long time. I do believe they are Wollemi pines

[Kathy A]

@jamibann thank you for the fav Issi

Ah isn't this just lovely, just googled it https://sydney-city.blogspot.com/2012/05/botanic-gardens-i-wish.html

And omg wollemi pines (dating from the time of the dinosaurs), you can't imagine the excitement when we come across a plant here (apparently in the wild, they're restricted to a 100 or so in one of your national parks) @pusspup

@boxplayer She sure is lovely, and has different flowers in her hands every time I see her, I’ve even added some on occasions. Wollemi pines are truly amazing. Thank you for the fav

[Casablanca]

So poignant.

[Susan Wakely]

A contemplative pose.

[Wendy]

She ages well and still speaks volumes. Beautiful.

She’s lovely- did you give her the flowers ?

Great find and capture

Lovely!

[John Falconer]

Absolutely well spotted. I’ve been there quite a few times but I must have been looking the wrong way.

[Jacqueline]

Nice sculpture!
