Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

Berlin, Germany

The Berlin Holocaust Memorial, by the American architect Peter Eisenman, lies between East and West Berlin.
The Memorial is made up of 2,711 massive rectangular stones on a sloping stretch of land.
The Memorial resembles a vast field of nameless tombstones and captures the horror of the Nazi death camps. ((Architecture Expert Jackie Craven)

A powerful and impressive image. I like how you composed this with some pretty sky for the viewer to have a bit of hope. When thinking of the Holocaust and all the people lost one needs a bit of hope. Brilliant work Tom. V
