Middleton Sentinel
Middleton Place was a lovely way to spend my birthday! There is a kind of majesty to the view from the main walking paths towards the river. These Brodie Juniper trees were spaced individually along the walkway like lone sentinels, so I named this “Middleton Sentinel”. They were incredibly tall, and I wanted to indicate that scale with the bench nearby.
I’ve found that people’s emotional reactions to the bench are a reflection of their personality or needs at the moment. Some people find the empty bench peaceful, reflective, and deliciously quiet. If you think it feels a bit lonely, please check out Middleton Sentinel II, where I added some liveliness just for you!
Middleton Place is in Charleston, SC and is a National Historic Landmark. It’s beautiful - go visit!
