A Sculpture Built To Honour The War Of 1812 (1812-1815). This Could Be Considered Canada's Revolutionary War Because The USA Invaded Trying To Annex Canada From The British Crown. In The End It Gave Canada Independece Of USA. I Like This Sculputre Because Its A Part Of Candian History.
The statue is installed in this part of the parliament to commemorate the war of 1812-1815, in which the American invasion was confronted.
Very impressive memorial. Got lucky and arrived shortly before a changing of the guard for an added bonus.
I feel like a humbug for not liking this sculpture that much! While I recognize that this piece has great value from a technical perspective, this work does not move me very much. There are many, many other statues in downtown Ottawa that I prefer.
Beautiful piece.
As I was walking by admiring this war mode sculpture and taking pictures a volunteer/guide quickly came running and asked me if I would be interested to learn more about the sculpture? I said yes, and she gave a briefing about what it represents and meant for Canadian history. I felt it was very thoughtful and relevant one!
