This one should tip off many of you at least to the artist(s) involved, if not the exact location. Edited to add: We have a winner! It is indeed the Giardino dei Tarocchi in Italy, an enchanting garden designed by Niki de Saint Phalle (the artist who created the angel sculpture in Zurich’s main train … Read more
