Another garden sculpture

This metal, sculpted face is in the sculpture garden at Burghley House near Stamford, Lincolnshire. It is one of the best of its kind that I've seen. I particularly liked the way it appeared to grow from, and merge with, the surrounding vegetation, and how it took on a fresh appearance depending on the angle from which it was seen.

Garden sculpture

This piece of garden sculpture appears to be one of two children responding to the beckoning flute of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. The three metal sculptures are situated in an area of "meadow" in a garden at Hampton Court Castle in Herefordshire. The setting of long grass adds depth and mystery to the the pieces that placement on a manicured lawn could not.
