The man gestures in front of the renovated tomb of Irish writer and poet Oscar Wilde's only grandson during a ceremony to unveil the renovated tomb on November 30, 2011 at Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris, exactly 111 years after his death. With a new glass barrier to shield the monument to the quitessential dandy from a torrent of admiring kisses, the tomb was designed by modernist sculptor US Jacob Epstein and featuring a flying Assyrian-style angel, survived almost unscathed until 1985, except for the angel's genitals being hacked off, according to the Irish Cultural Centre.
