What a beautiful object! You have done a remarkable job capturing the lighting on the side. Where is this, please?

author says:

Thanks MossyB for your comment and your fav. I appreciate them both.
This Minotaur caught my eye as soon as I saw it. Although, It was at the backyard of some Institution at "El Escorial", a town located in the outskirts of Madrid Spain, I thought it was worth shooting it. So, I took my chances through the bars of the gate in a very unconfortable pose which rather compromised the focus, and this is the outcome. I'm really glad you like it.

Well worth your suffering, the focus is beautiful, and does not look compromised at all. Thank you for the most interesting "back story" behind the photo - Often times, it makes the image even more interesting!
