Garsington Opera pavilion at Wormsley
Garsington Opera (http://www.garsingtonopera.org/ ) moved to their new home on the Wormsley estate in 2011. There are four sculptures just visible on the terrace: two free-flowing abstract forms made from a pale wood; and two Olympian figures of a darker brown. The left-hand sculpture is clearer in this image (http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2993094 ) looking out from the pavilion.

Garsington Opera in the Wormsley Estate
The production in rehearsal is La Périchole by Jacques Offenbach. Garsington Opera began life at Garsington Manor, near Oxford, where the productions often felt as though they were part of the gardens. That spirit lives on after the move to Wormsley in 2011 - the sides of the pavilion are clear and the trees and gardens clearly visible.

In 2011, Garsington Opera (http://www.garsingtonopera.org/ ) moved from its old home at Garsington Manor, near Oxford, to a new home on the Wormsley estate. This is the view looking away from the lower pavilion terrace towards the lake and island. The sculpture is for sale, should you have a spare £4,500.
