More clearing the backlog of submissions, but this one is astounding. This apparition, complete with nappy is in Belmont, the home of a few worsts in it’s time. This one is from Mulberry. Mulberry went on to condemn pointy knobs on houses as a worst architectural feature. I’m not actually anti knob Mully, but I have to respect your maiden with the knockers, so maybe you do know what you are talking about.

Weighed down by a pair of balls. In order to pay sufficient attention to the centre of attention certain other aspects of this artwork had to be neglected eg. legs , knees , bum , face , a reasonable sense of human geometry etc No doubt another “promising ” and “aspiring” “Perth artist”.

Wasn’t the finial was added to stop unwanted visitors (spirits/witches) landing on your roof and affecting the harmony of you abode? but only on gables it seems. Bet you they dont work for Jehovahs Witnesses and why the bad guys couldn’t fly through a window or door I don’t know.
Personally I much prefer the terracotta dragons through-out Mt Lawley.

Is there a correlation between breast size and arm length in women? She certainly doesn’t need to crouch to put that pot down, her hands would practically touch the ground if her arms were by her side.

Does someone have a long arm fetish? Check the length of the pair in Alsatian Rampant…

Texan, interesting you should mention Alsations Rampant. I also noticed the connection.
In fact Hokusan and I were discussing the possibility that this sculpture is intended to be in a forward horizontal position so that her vessel – so to speak – was upward. In this position, combined with her unusually long arms, you could certainly argue that both artist were of the same school.
If nothing else, at least she may collect enough some change from a passer-by to buy some better underwear.

Ahh… the finial. It was once considered a show-piece of craftsmanship – a piece of fine wood-working to adorn the front of your abode. I think the class fell out of the idea when they started using aluminium tubing and pine slats as cheap and easy replacements.
I mean, they haven’t even plugged the ends of the tubing or concealed the screws holding it to the barge board, for goodness sake! And they’ve trimmed the pine to fit around the ridge capping, instead of the other way around!
