DC Art News alerted us to this posting from grammar.police about a most unusal sclupture at the National Cathedral. That’s right, it’s Darth Vader from the Star Wars saga. Does this mean that fallen Jedi warriors are held in high regard by the Episcopalian church?
To find Vader and other gargoyles, check out the Cathedral’s web guide to its sculptures. There are some other odd items in the Cathedral, like Woodrow Wilson‘s remains and a moon rock glazed into a stained-glass window.
The Vader carving was done by Takoma Park artist Patrick Plunkett, a member of the Stonecarvers Guild.
