These are my lions. My grandfather gave them to me when he moved. They were among the only things I wanted from his house because of the big sentimental value. I spent many happy hours playing on them when I was a child. They looked quite nice with their little snow caps on and I snapped their picture. It seemed like a long time since I put anything new up in the Architectural Elements category. The lions are Persian and quite, quite old.

2 In fact, they do: Patience and Fortitude, like their younger cousins at the New York Public Library.

6 Wow, those are so cool! I bet when you invite people over, you tell them it's the house with the lions, right? LOL You probably can't miss them...
