David's shot of this is much nicer, but that's okay because I took mine from the car while he went through the trouble of hiking up a steep hill for it.
still: I really like this little mountain and I would not mind having it in my back garden.

Voyage

Two sculptures, anonymous figures strangely imbued with some quality that makes them more than just representationally human, lean precariously toward the sea. Between them is a meaningful bond, though between them too lies a vast ocean. Steinunn Thórarinsdóttir created and installed these powerfully pensive sculptures to commemorate both British and Icelandic fishermen who perished at sea during the so-called Cod Wars of the mid-twentieth century. One figure stands in Vík on Iceland’s southern coast, the other in Hull, England, cast in aluminum and bronze respectively and both atop tall basalt pillars.

In the distance The Deep, the aquarium in Hull.

I'm now planning on photographing the other sculpture in Iceland ;-)))
