Icon heART. Laurie Zuckerman photographed this Sacred Heart in the old Catholic cemetery in Arima, Trinidad, British West Indies. IconARTe is the name of my art business. The word ART is also an intergral part of HEART. The ART of the HEART is always fascinating for me to photograph, but I don't find them that often in the Catholic cemeteries I haunt. This simple heart decorating a plain white cross has grown more iconic over the years. Weathering, patina, and lack of color add to the poignancy of this classic symbol.
First time visitor, I have come from Vintage Green.
