Silent Prayer by padlock

Silent Prayer

Passed this statue many times in St Albans Cathedral but only noticed how well the hands were replicated.
Another excellent detail capture. Lots to see around the Abbey. I really must get back there again.

Wonderful DoF and a great study of the fabulously detailed hands.

I agree and aren't hands supposed to be one of the most difficult things to get right in art.

You're right - that's some talent indeed. And I guess he's been praying for some years...
Lovely light on this Mr P, shows a little of the marble's translucency.
