Celebration, art, or trash?


Came across this piece of 'artwork' in one of Belgrade's older neighborhoods. At first I thought some very neat drinkers (these are mini brandy bottles, easily purchased at street kiosks) put them there, but someone told me that a man had put them there to protest their lying on the ground as so much trash...who knows?

JUDAS TREE

  This is a Judas Tree, thus named because it is said to be the type of tree from which Judas Iscariot hanged himself after betraying Christ...
