| A close-up of one of the lion faces. These are not fierce Chinese lions but rather gentle and wise mythical beasts with almost a Zen serenity to them. The face tells you the lion understands everything (life, the way of the world, the potential for joy and wisdom, the potential for human suffering). All this an more the lion knows -- though he may not tell you. |
