"Living" characters ... "Live" statues" ...

As I was looking at some of the photos recently taken in Madrid I could not resist "pairing" them.

"The falling Angel" (Left). The relaxing Angel (Right).

The Monarch without a vice (Left). The dandy without a head (Right).

The pouring water fountain (Left).The creativity pouring "fountain" (Right).

Note:

The Retiro Gardens statue of the "Falling angel" by Ricardo Bellver (1845-1924) inspired by a passage from John Milton's Paradise lost, represents Lucifer falling from Heaven.
 The photo of the "live statue" of the angel relaxing and having a cigarrete was taken just outside the  Royal Palace.

The Plaza Mayor equestrian statue of Philip III by Gianbodogna (1529-1608) represents the king of Spain and King of Portugal and the Algarves. Philip III was considered  a "miserable monarch, whose only virtue appeared to reside in a total absence of vice". The  photo of the "live statue" of the  headless dandy was taken just outside the Royal Palace.

The "fountains" were both located in and outside the Retiro Gardens respectively.
