Great photos as always Quincy! :)
Now this is a rather strange photo - it seems to show Princes* Park Gates during the gilding of the 'Sunburst' effect, with only the right-hand one having been completed. Can this pic be dated and what is the source, please?
(* It's Princes with one 's', by the way - after Prince Albert, the Prince Regent)
Walk through Dino's Gates
The iron Renwick gates fashioned as an ogee arch,
finally set up, a century late, gateposts sculpted
in warm red-sandstone by Constantine Seferlis,
truthfully not wild like the leering ogres conjured
up by this cheeky animalier: bulldog, poodle,
a cat w/ bird in teeth, praying mantis, praying pig.
Come walk through Dino's gates this fine spring
morning; feel free to ogle the rampant pink magnolia,
startle-Tweety-bird yellow witch hazel, and, lookee!
hid by a dusky wall, a lavender Korean rhododendron.

Now that these historic gates have finally been gilded, they have a more dramatic appearance. Although now splendidly refurbished, the authentic Invisible Green colour had been criticised by some as being rather dull and lacking in impact.
thanks for these :)
These are the gates to Walton Park Cemetery, now also the entrance to Rice Lane Farm.
They are inspired by Jean Millet's "Angelus (see painting)
