The tragic legend of the winged guardian of paradise struck a chord with the Victorians. The heron was transformed into a golden statue when a prince captured him and a wrathful king shattered the figural. Fairies assisted the boy in gathering the shards into a velvet pouch that was tossed to sea. Thus is attributed its mournful cry over the oceans. Cast from an antique. Black cast-iron.
