Mother of Queens

Mother of Queens was the origin for a complete set of chess pieces. She is in that sense the mother of them all, and was the inspiration for the Queen of the set.

In the last image, she stands at the mouth of the harbour of Humber Bay, Toronto.  Is she a guardian, or is she a waiting soul remembering someone lost?  Maybe both; none of us is simple, and the longer we are around the more tangled we can become until, perhaps, we free ourselves of our complexities.  

She shows the marks of her age, her experience, her mistakes, her wisdom.
