Folk Stones by fbailey

Folk Stones

This is Folkestone Abstract from 06.09.17 in its entirety. I did say I would add this so here it is, a little late (story of my life).

No need to comment:)
A very moving piece. Is there something near the work to explain the tribute?

@suzanne234 Thanks Suzanne. There's a nearby plaque telling passersby who made it and the reason behind its construction. All of the various artworks around Folkestone have these. Will try to include these with any future shots so thanks for that:)

@fbailey Ahh, that's good, I was really moved by it the other day and just thought it would be a shame if visitors to the area weren't aware of the reason.

I'm going to have to research this to find out more!

Gosh, this give scale to the size of this artwork. It's huge!

It's an impressive size.

It sure is an impressive size.

@maggiemae @randystreat @peadar @littleconnie Thank you, 19,240 stones take up a fair bit of room! Gives an excellent idea of the magnitude of the loss of life.
