When I first saw it I thought he was just standing with his hands behind him like my Grandfather did most of the time. when I read that his hands were tied and he was awaiting his fate, it gave a whole different feeling to the piece.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17469878511196407233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-77483995535406102732012-03-15T09:54:19.456-05:002012-03-15T09:54:19.456-05:00WOW!

One tends to forget just how young people we read about in history books could actually have been.<br /><br />About the leash on today's post, the only thing I can say in defense of the owner is that perhaps he/she was looking out to avoid any pedestrian not paying attention and getting tangled up with this swell dog and therefore taking it out on the dog. I myself hope the person wasn't gone too long, for sure. And I understand your point one hundred percent.
