Drago

Dragon Tree

Moisés Afonso
2016

Description

Metal sculpture of a dragon tree. In a park in Icod de la Vinos is the oldest living dragon tree, therefore the town calls itself 'La Ciudad del Drago' - the town of the dragon tree.
Next to the tree stands a metal cart with the name 'La Mancha' - we don't think this belongs to the dragon tree.

Artist

Moisés Afonso, Canarian iron smith of Icod de los Vinos (Facebook).
