Washington, DC - Revelation Dragon and Sabertooth Tiger Very wacky 30-foot tall sculptures made of wood. The sheer scale is impressive. There's nothing like this in the nation's capital.
These can be found inside Glenwood Cemetery behind the Chapel. There are actually four sculptures: the main sculpture of the dragon arm catching a dragon, then a sabertooth tiger with woodland animals at his feet, then two angel statues. All are made of former trees on the grounds. According to the Superintendent of the cemetery, the statues were carved by Dayton Scoggins as an attempt to do something "green" with dead trees.
The sculptures were "inspired" by passages in the Bible from the Book of Revelation, Chapter 20:1-3, 7. [Wondermachine, 12/03/2008]
