Rebekah at the Well
I believe this to be my namesake. It is a tradition for some families to name their children using names out of the Bible. This is the Biblical character my Mother used to name me, although she chose a more traditional spelling.

The bronze statue: Rebekah at the Well
Artist: David R Young 2005
Location: Sunken Gardens
Photography by me all original taken August 2018
Originally there was a cement statute from the 1930's and due to vandalism it was replaced in 2005 with David R Young's work. If you look closely you can see a few chips on her face. Why people vandalize art is beyond my comprehension.
For the few that appreciate abstract elements, I will continue to post abstract work in @photobe.

Nice detail in the photos.
thank you :)
Beautiful photos! 😍
thank you
It is a gorgeous piece of artwork and you are right, I don't understand people who feel the need to destroy artwork by vandalizing it. It used to be a tradition to name children after biblical characters, the names of saints or elder family members ie grandparents. The photos are beautiful.
I am old...lol
tradition for generations..
looks like a nice piece of art surrounded by nature! I'm curious of the symbolism. What is the pour feeding into?
Intriguing @rebeccabe
A small waterfall ... hmmm.. now you got me to think I will have to back out and look. I am totally into symbolism. It surrounds us, most are obvious to it. Beautiful place the Sunken Gardens. Flowers, koi fish, trees. Vibration is wonderful. Thanks for your comment.

I'm just north of Tampa, but Sunken Gardens is across the bay from me in St. Pete.
