GROTESQUES OF WINCHESTER. Gargoyles without water spouts, Grotesques are protective stone features found on medieval buildings.
Not something we see a lot in our architecture in the US. Love the creative images!
We have a lot in our European countries! Maybe we can lend you some grotesques? ;)
Love these. I always wish they were a little bit easier to see - and photograph - though!
Usually they are too high, aren't they?
I love gargoyles... and I had no idea that grotesques were different.
something I learned not long ago (at least, the English names for those!)
Thank you for coming. All your comments make me extremely happy.
