Toronto Irish Famine Memorial
We have here: "The Jubilant Man" "The Apprehensive Boy" "The Orphan Boy" "Pregnant Woman"
The sculptures are part of the monument park in Toronto, marking the 19th C. flight of tens of thousands of Irish to Toronto due to the Great Hunger.
It is among the most moving memorials you will ever see. Not easy to find, at all. Bottom of Bathurst Street, in behind the Malting Co. silos.
