Taken September, 2014. 100th anniversary of start of WWI. Volunteers placed porcelain poppies in the moat of the Tower of London. One for each British soldier lost in that war.View attachment 620498
Porcelain..... Sounds like a lot of breakage being asked for, but the artists were pointing up the fragility of Human Life. The casualty count was 88,8246 British Army Soldiers, of which one was my Great Uncle. The Somme, July, 1916.

The Flowers are now property of The Imperial War Museum.
