Maggie Hambling Scallop shell sculpture, Aldeburgh, Suffolk


There was some controversy about this sculpture when it was first proposed. I love it, not just the way it reflects its setting but the way it inserts words into the landscape........

The beach at Aldeburgh is never silent; the sound the waves make as they retreat from the shingle is an aural backdrop for other voices your imagination might hear. No doubt Benjamin Britten thought so too.
