“This angel is a messenger of love and peace and harmony,“ said Elton John. “We live in a mad world at the moment and we want this piece to be a powerful reminder of the need for us to work together on global challenges, like Aids. If this beautiful angel can help people to think more about peace and love and harmonious living then we have done our job.“
