Hood Memorial Relief - "The Bridge of Sighs", 1854. Detail on monument commemorating poet Thomas Hood in Kensal Green Cemetery, London. Medallion illustrating...Hood's fine poem:.the poor victim of deluded hope and love is seen just raised from the watery grave, into which she had rushed headlong to escape from the pangs of cureless remorse and shame, and the consequent "burning insanity" which had rendered life insupportable...Mr. Noble has shown a complete sympathy with the touching description of the poet, and has embodied the story with much success. The unfortunate and beautiful girl is represented as being indeed taken up "tenderly" by two compassionate men, while a youth stands wondering by, and struck with emotion at the wreck of so much loveliness'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
