Maman...the spider in front of the National Gallery in Ottawa

Great photo Lori, love this angle :) I see a website on the bottom. Did you take the photo or just sharing with us? Nice, either way :)

Just sharing..Tg... the positioning of this piece of art was controversial...personally I think it's fantastic...and I wanted to share this spider guarding our national heritage!! lol....Interesting link too..if you care to take a look...

Thanks Lori :)

I think its fabulous. Thanks Lori.

I'm going to the gallery this summer and will take my own shots of Maman... LOL..Marguerite...she is (I'm estimating) about 20 ft. tall. This sculpture is HUGE! imagine finding her lurking in your back garden!!

You could never wash that one down the plughole

I'll bet the old lady can't swallow this one!

awesome...

LOL...Yes GG and Ff... Ff...the Rideau Canal is not very far away or the River either...nobody's tried yet...people are actually fans of hers...and no she's solid metal definitely not interested in flies or old ladies! It's quite an experience to walk in and stand directly under her abdomen...wow...

I'll be in Ottawa next week - must go and look at this. Great photo!

Thanks Elke! Hope you have some nice weather for your visit.

How cool is that ! I love it Lori, wish I had these artists foresight and imagination ! On second thought, it's probably better that I don't. I'd be down right dangerous with those talents...lol

AMazing picture I am glad thats not in my greenhouse the ones i have are big enough.

I missed the spider when it came to London...

YIKES! They come big over there!

LOL..Sid... I'm sure they have something larger in Texas...but here in Canada she's the biggest!!!

it might be a sculpure but you wouldnt catch me anywhere near this,, im panicing just looking at pic lol,
