William deGarthe - Fisherman's monument

I don't know much about this guy so I google him. He's a Finnish born artist who spent most of his life in Peggy's Cove.
This is one of his famous sculptures, located on the property he used to call home. It is a sculpture of thirty-two fishermen and their wives and children protected by the wings of St. Elmo. It also features Peggy, a shipwreck survivor the village is named after.
There is an art gallery next door with more of his work bit it wasn't open.Leia mais
