Jaak Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Seriously, why not? In crypts of Winterfell, there are statutes of Stark lords and kings, and also some non-lord members like Lyanna. Would any statue of Tywin be made? If yes, would any of the statues be of gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Vance II Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I don't know who would commission it. Tywin's kids who don't hate him are a little busy and at least one will probably die before the end. By the end I think the remaining Lannisters will just be trying to hold onto the Rock. But if there was to be a statue of Tywin, I mean I guess it would be gold. Gold leaf anyway. A golden statue may be too gaudy for even the Lannisters though.

Damion Lannister as Castellan, or some of his stewards? Does Tywin have a gold father, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Mertyns Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Who knows if the Lannisters even have statues in their crypts. If they do, perhaps Jaime will get a gold sister too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems entirely too extravagant and wasteful for Tywin. Even assuming they did exist I feel like Tywin would have melted them down into ingots.

White Ravens Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 If anyone were to commission a gold statue of Tywin Lannister it would likely be Tywin himself. A reminder to everyone of how wealthy and powerful he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurid Jester Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 While rereading AFfC it turns out that A stonemason was commissioned at casterly Rock to build a Tywin Statue at the gate of the city. Quote Between coughs, Lord Gyles told her that he had hired a master stonecarver to make a statue of Lord Tywin, to stand eternal vigil beside the Lion Gate. Cersie 2 Not gold, but I think this counts possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no other crypts like the Crypts of WF in ASOIF. Seems to have something to do with the "old gods" vs. the faith of the seven. Tywin is burried beneth the sept of Baelor and there seems to be no custom to errect statues of thoose burried there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tywin's funeral was in the sept of baelor but once done his bones will be sent to the rock. Quote It always angered him to see Jaime all in white. Her brother was growing his beard again as well. The stubble covered his jaw and cheeks, and gave his face a rough, uncouth look. He might at least have waited till Father's bones were interred beneath the Rock.
