I don't really like sculptures; there's something ominous and dark about them.

I like the Celtic sculptures known as Verracos, they are found all over the center-west of Iberia :

Nice. In Portugal they call it Berrão.

Porca de Murça - Portugal.

Spoiler!

The Coat of Arms of Picote too, depicts the parish after the Verraco.


In fact. The Scared Wild boar is still celebrated during Cultural events.

"Paz e Liberdade" is the most thrilling sculpture I have ever seen [even though have seen only a photograph of it.}

Cemetery sculptures in general.

Weeping angels are exercises in overwrought sentimentality. Angels are immortal. Why should they weep over the inevitable death of
mortals ? Surely, viewing mankind, as they must, sub specie aeternitatis, they are above such meaningless grief over a mortal's
predestined demise.

"It seems most strange to me that men should fesr, seeing that Death, a necessary end, will come when it will come." - William Shakespeare (in "Julius Caesar")
