This fine figure of a gent mesmerized me during a recent visit to Gloucester cathedral.
This fantastic marble sculpture conjures up images of what a fine figure of a man he must have been. The detail of the hair, clothing ; right down to the frilled boots with awesome buckles resting on a scared looking eagle. A wonderful historical capture of the dress of the time. I could not properly view his wife who lays beside him, but suffice to say she is well and truly overshon by her magnificent husband. I suppose he was the one with the money!
