Angels and cherubs in Wimberley, Texas

Angelic sightings scattered throughout the Wimberley cemetery.

Did you know the image we have of a cherub being a chubby-cheeked baby with wings only came about during the Renaissance when artists began depicting lower-order angels as children?

All of the angels in the cemetery are beautiful. It would be difficult to pick a favorite. I do like this unusual angel, wrapping her arms together to make a watering spot for the birds next to her person’s resting place. With so little rain the last few years, she doesn’t get to give them water unless perhaps a caretaker sees her bowl is full.

This little cemetery is full of charm and personality.

Part 3 will feature the animals and birds in the cemetery.
