Dying in Valparaiso: Angels, Virgins and Teeny Little Babies

Here's a selection of some of the statues on the tombs in all three of the Valparaiso Cemeteries-1, 2 and the dirty Dissidents'.

Out of all the statues i saw, this was the only one that kind of moved me...


That's heavy cross to bear...



Howzaaaaaaaaaaaaat??????? (for cricket lovers only)


This lady is 'armless...(sorry)



Ahhhhhhh...


This lady looks like she's had acid thrown in her face...and she doesn't even get a sea-view. That's Cerro Concepcion behind.



An entire family of little 'uns...


She could do with a wash-this was the only dirty sculpture i saw...




There are repairs going on in Cementerio Numero 1 at the moment...




This photo you've already seen...
