Angel of Grief Monument Statue: Estate

The detail of this designer resin Victorian angel is truly remarkable, from her delicate wings and arms to the tendrils at the nape of her neck. Inspired by American poet and sculptor William Wetmore Story's monument created as a tribute to his wife Emelyn, our estate version features a raised message encouraging you to embrace life. The inscription on the statue reads: "The bud was spread to show the rose our saviour smiled the bud was closed. Anon". This exquisite piece measures 12"Wx26"Dx24"H and weighs 21 lbs.

This angel statue is a representation of the sorrow and devastation felt in the face of loss. It is inspired by the monument that Story created for his wife's grave at the Protestant Cemetery in Rome, which turned out to be his final major work before his passing, just a year after his wife's death. The inscription on our version of the statue reads: "The bud was spread to show the rose our Saviour smiled the bud was closed. Anon".

Crafted with high-quality materials, our Angel of Grief statue is hand-cast using real crushed stone bonded with durable designer resin. It is finished with an antique stone finish, making it suitable for display in your home or garden, or as a thoughtful gift for someone experiencing their own loss.

Exclusively available from Design Toscano, this Angel of Grief statue serves as a touching way to honor the memory of a loved one and offer healing to those who are mourning. Our statue is designed to be a comforting presence, measuring 12"Wx26"Dx24"H and weighing 21 lbs.
