Miami Beach is known for a libertine way of life. It is not all so. The city has a large Jewish population. At one time, Greater Miami had the largest population of Holocaust survivors of any city. Miami Beach’s memorial to the dead is little visited and profoundly moving.
That's all from Florida. Back to St. Louis tomorrow.
Somber, indeed. I hope the Jewish people, or anyone, never have to experience such deplorable atrocities again. May God bless them.
ReplyDeleteles sculptures représentent bien le thème de l'holocauste. C'est vraiment impressionnant. Pour que l'on oublie jamais.
ReplyDeletesculptures represent the theme of the Holocaust. It is really impressive. For that we never forget.
Thanks for bringing this memorial to everyone's attention. Having such a somber expression amid Miami's more light-hearted elements probably only emphasizes the emotions of the sculptures.
ReplyDeleteSo impressive! beautiful photos about history's most somber days. Very touching indeed. Let us hope that mankind will never experience such atrocities again.
ReplyDeleteThese have to be the most impressive photos posted today. The first one is especially eye-catching. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThe first picture is my favourite! A very creative and interesteing choice of composition.
ReplyDeleteAll your photos are amazing and the last one the most moving, or shocking in its realism.
ReplyDeleteBut the TOP PHOTO is absolutely spectacular. The way you composed it with the water lily half way down the arm is a beauty!
These really are magnificent and heartbreaking sculptures. One of the Russian dailies featured similar sculptures a few week ago. They had the same effecton me as these do now.
ReplyDeleteWe must never forget.
