The Young Lovers by Georg Ehrlich at Festival Gardens in London

myminifactory

This life-size bronze sculpture depicts a young couple, both completely unclothed, seated side-by-side in deep affection. The girl has her arms wrapped tightly around the man's waist and he has his left arm slung across the girl's stomach with his hand resting in the crook of her left arm pit. His right hand is pressed against the girl's back with a gentle caress on the girl's neck. Their cheeks are nestled closely together in a tender gesture of love, one that is seen daily. This beautiful sculpture stands at the heart of Festival Gardens, shrouded by the shadow of St. Paul's Cathedral in the midst of London's bustling financial district. Conceived by renowned sculptor George Ehrlich, this piece is one of his most celebrated works and embodies peace and love amidst the chaos of city life that surrounds them. Ehrlich is a master sculptor, with many of his creations showcased in top galleries around the world. This object is part of "Scan The World".
