Art Break: The Lions at 10th Avenue South and Bradford Avenue.

 

These two lions stand guard at the sidewalk entrance to a house on the corner of Bradford Avenue and 10th Avenue South.  Until recently they were white and then they received this wonderful treatment.  I don't know if it is a restoration or a modification.  When white, I thought they were kind of tacky.  Now, I am impressed.  I had never really thought much about them before the new paint job.  I just assumed they were concrete yard art.  They are cast iron.  The eyes seem to glow, but they are not glass.  That is paint. Beautifully done.
