45) Three Daughters Posing



Three Daughters Posing



in Reykjavík, Iceland for their mother's photo on the Lief Eriksson statue in front of Hallgrímskirkja during the Menningarnótt cultural celebration on August 18, 2012, sketched on August 20, 2012

Trivia: The huge statue of Lief Eriksson is by Alexander Stirling Calder, the second of three generations of noted Calder sculptors from Philadelphia. It was a gift from the United States in honor of the 1930 Alþingi Millennial Festival, commemorating the 1000th anniversary of Iceland's parliament at Þingvellir in 930 AD.
