Happy Halloween

There is a lot of trick-or-treating going on outside our door. The kids, accompanied by their parents, are roaming the foggy streets, visiting the houses of all their little friends. Many of them in spooktacular sekleton costumes. But nothing is as creepy as the real thing, especially if it looks over your shoulder in an exhibition. Well, almost real. The statue of the Grim Reaper is made of sand stone and was created by sculptor Claude Curé back in 1723. It was part of the decoration of the burial chapel of a prince bishop in the Würzburg Cathedral.

Always there

Always there. The Grim Reaper
Always there | Ansbach | 2022

We’re not quite at Halloween, but close enough for this snapshot I took last weekend during a tour of the “Bayerische Landesaustellung” in Ansbach. And for sure a good reminder to make the most of every day, to do what you love and not waste time with worrying about things you can’t change. Because he is always there…
