Artist's Description
I've always found the "Angel of Grief" (a.k.a. Weeping Angel) monument to be espcially beautiful and moving as it wonderfully expresses the grief of losing a loved one. I take every opportunity of photograph them when I find one. This is the eleventh Angel I've photographed but what makes it special for me is that this is the original Angel of Grief upone which all of the others are based on. American artist and sculptor William Wetmore Story (1819-1895) made this for his wife Emelyn Story (1820-1895). He is buried next to her. This is in the Cimitero Acattolica di Roma (Non-Catholic Cemetery of Rome) aka Campo Cestio or the Protestant Cemetery.

About Mike Schaffner
Photography has been a passion of mine for over 45 years and I look forward to making photos for the next 45. I hope that you like my photos; I am okay with it if you dislike them; I just hope I never bore you. I haven't deliberately developed a certain style as I like most styles and genres of photography. I will admit a preference for black and white images as I find them more expressive but not to the exclusion of color images. I creatively edit my images to convey to the viewer the spirit of what I saw and felt about the scene rather than trying to document the scene journalistically. All of the images were made and processed by me. All are copyrighted, all rights reserved.
