Taliesin

Image

View from below looking up at a plaster sculpture of a nude woman rising out of an abstract column. Frank Lloyd Wright designed the sculpture and placed it outside his home named Taliesin. He titled the sculpture "Flower in the Crannied Wall," from the poem by Lord Tennyson Alfred. Today the statue at Taliesin is protected from the elements that eroded its features at an earlier time.
