I've been searching for it all day. It looks like a legitimate media photo of a lady at a museum or art gallery holding up the "angel" for news people to see. The "angel" is also in the circular inset at the bottom right of the photo.

I've seen so many old stone Angels on Google today, I would guess this one could be a thousand or more years old. Probably found somewhere in Europe and put on display somewhere. I think the object is legit, but certainly not found on the moon.

PS: I just enlarged the lady's hand, and I think it is possible that the stone angel might have been added to the photo.

Here is a link to a similar sculpture available for purchase:
