Yes, summer of '92, the Zoo European dates, these were taken in a cemetery in Vienna, I believe -- you know that shot of Bono with no shirt on and his mouth WIDE open, even for him, hugging a stone angel? Same photo shoot....

Wow, thanx for the cemetary pictures. It's one of the most beautiful cemeterys in the world, the one we are having here in Vienna. I am not sure but I think the angel it the one on Mozart's grave. I have to check to be sure about that. But I love that they did photos there. It's a beautiful, very old place. I and some of my friends are sometimes going there to take very interesting photos.

Oh definitely let us know if that angel is Mozart's. I'd be interested to find out if it is. Thanks!

 

[bonocomet]

We hardly ever see this shoot in color so I like this one.

You can see some good pictures of Mozart’s grave on JasonDeFillippo’s account on Flickr, here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jpdefillippo/tags/mozart..

But this picture leaves us no doubt. It is the angel from Mozart’s grave (I mean, I think...).

 

[bonocomet]

Hmmm those angels look different though.

Thanks for the pics!

 

[last unicorn]

No, I don't think it is. Look at this picture, it's a very new one, made after they restaurated the grave for the 2006 Year of Mozart:

I think the angel that Bono is "holding" is a female angel, while the one on Mozart's grave is a cupid, a little boy angel.

I haven't been to Mozart's grave in ages, since it's always crowded with tourists these days. And there are so many angels around in that cemetery that I wasn't sure.

 

[LostAtMoon]

Yes, they are different. I think you're right last unicorn, it seems to be a female angel.
Thank you.

 

[FEELINNUMB]

They are two different angels, not counting Bon...

It kills me to see the pic with watermarks on it, eleven years ago, I first saw this pic and the first one posted in a photography book at an ad agency, a commercially-published book, and I'll be damned if I can remember anything about it, because when I came across these shots, I froze -- the book was about 24" by 12". And being an ad agency, they had a Xerox machine that could have copied The Last Supper, so I was able to copy them. They're in a box somewhere now that I can't get at them, but I'm thinking, was the photographer Seliger??? I'm wondering if the book was of his works...Dan Quayle was right, it's a terrible thing to lose your mind.

Dan Quayle--Indiana's shame. Ever notice how much he and Bush sound alike when it comes to public speaking?

I think it's real. I remember reading about it when it was first posted and people who went to that concert confirmed that the elderly woman were indeed there .

 

[last unicorn]

Those cemetery pictures are indeed amazing! I would love to hear/see more about these sessions.

 

[tuwie]
