It would be hilarious to see that sarcophagus puffing out smoke rings.

The just looked like they were, but the speakers hidden in "brass instruments" mounted on the wall, would play in response to motion around the sculpture. That was very funny.<br /><br />My mother is grateful for your generous comment (she, it turns out) reads them all!

The row of tapering brick oven/chimneys are what make the center so recognizable from a distance. I wasn't surprised to learn they were an English design, since I've seen them around England.
