Stockholm - The sky and the sea were two important sources of inspiration for the Swedish sculptor Carl Milles (1875-1955). A life-long amateur astronomer, Milles often placed his sculptures on high columns so that they were silhouetted against the sky. From this view high on the terrace of his home (which he donated to the Swedish people during his life time) we enjoy looking up in the blue sky to see both the sculptures and the skyline of Stockholm on the horizon.

The Angel Musician with the flute makes me long to go back to flute practicing and playing in the Fall semester in Newton.
