Garden guard

Seen in a garden down the street from us on Capitol Hill. There was a similar demon on the other end of the wall.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

Not a run of the mill garden gnome by any means! Appears to be guarding a rather lovely pot with beautiful flowers.

Definitely a warning to stay away especially with those chains. V

A strange figure to put in a garden

Chained down for visitor protection. V

He’s kind of creepy looking especially with the chain around his neck! V

I’m not sure he can scare the new demons of everyday life 😀!

Wow! A neat find, perfect with the chains.

a classic grotesque, perhaps to scare away salesmen, burglars, and politicians...

Yoda is the name that came to my mind too! Abandon all hope, ye who enter! To borrow a phrase. V

An angry Yoda with wings!

quite unusual using gargoyle for a garden, but i like the idea!

No need for an expensive security system here!
