“falcons eyes”

Horus [in ancient Egyptian legend] was a god in the form of a falcon whose right eye was the sun, representing power and whose left eye was the moon, representing healing. Mr. Barrow expertly carved both front and back with the falcon eye - it is a beautiful sculpture.

“Makes me smile”

John Barrow is one of my very favorite living artists, and I have collected quite a few of his pieces. When I opened this package, I was greeted by this jaunty fellows delightful grin. The light-hearted sculpture is a departure from Barrows other work. It is shiny and whimsical and so much fun. I purchased it on a whim, but it has quickly found Its way into my heart.
