Might I add that regardless of the Cavalier
appearance and non-physical resemblance, the idea of
votive candles symbolizing Milton's light within is
a stroke of genius and very faithful to Milton's
personal outlook and the poetry he created.This
inclusion by Kirmss cannot be appreciated with the
photo that was attached. To build that feature into
the project is lovely.
Sadly, not too many people know of the traditional
Tibetan greeting (I didn't until today) and most
will have a modern reaction to the modern message of
one's sticking out their tongue. Milton was a rebel,
but not THAT kind of a rebel.
I just wished it would have looked more like Milton.
