FAMINE MEMORIAL AT CUSTOM HOUSE QUAY IN DUBLIN [ARTIST - ROWAN GILLESPIE]

For some reason I have always fount it difficult to get photographs of this famine memorial.

The Famine Memorial statues were presented to the City of Dublin in 1997. This collection of sculptures commemorate the Great Famine of the mid-19th century when Ireland lost more than one million people to famine and emigration. These statues were designed and crafted by Dublin sculptor Rowan Gillespie.
