We saw this while in the excellent Martinsbräu in Freiburg in Breisgau, that jewel among German cities -- possibly the most Mediterranean of the cities of the German south.

The whole place is downstairs one level, under the busy city food market above. There are booths and tables set near the big copper brew kettles (the Martinsbräu is a microbrewery) and off to one side, by one of the big tables, pictures of angels are hung on the far wall.

Theoretically, the various angels are supposed to be protecting their charges. But some of the angels look... a little ambivalent.

Obviously intended for the St. Wonka school of childcare.

Kind of makes me think of the horribly creepy angel statues from the new Doctor Who series!

Silly kids obviously haven't seen that one. See they're looking the other way so the angel's all reaching out to get them. If they'd just turn around...

It looks like the angel is working the strings on a couple of puppets.

my grandmother kept a print of this in my dad's room while he was growing up. It has always made me a little uneasy

The prevalence of these things makes me wonder about kids back then. Did all their parents think they would just throw themselves off cliffs or get eaten by tigers without divine intervention?

(And yes, they creep me out too.)

That one looks like her 'charges' have sprinted off to get their feet wet one time too many. *grins*
