Kennett Square, Pennsylvania

Unicorns on Parade:  Add two more rearing unicorns to the parade. They honor a woman in her late 20s when she died. There is no indication she was married, which would fit the unicorn legend that states only a virgin (with bared breasts!) can catch a unicorn. In fact, the Virgin Mary was depicted in a famous painting, in Poland's National Museum, holding a unicorn, presumably one that she had caught. Note, however, how much longer the horn is in the painting. See below. St. Patrick's Cemetery. [2014]
