Statuary of angels crying are pretty common in cemeteries. It is reflective of the mourning by those that feel sadness over the passing of a loved one.

Ah, it's so beautiful! I like the harsher values of the angel, and then the really soft background.

Thanks! It's a technique I've been working on. Some of the photos in your gallery would lend themselves well to it.

This particular statue was over a grave, so the sadness would be over the death of the person buried there. I was touched by what almost looks like a tear on the cheek.
