About the artwork

At the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial, an imposing monument commemorates the enormous courage and sacrifice of the US soldiers who gave their lives during the invasion of Normandy on D-Day. This monument, erected in memory of the 9,387 soldiers killed, stands proudly in the centre of the cemetery and is a symbol of the price of freedom. The monument is decorated with statues of US soldiers and inscriptions highlighting the sacrifice of these men.

The photograph captures the strength and serenity of the monument, which rises in the distance above the sprawling cemetery. It reminds us of the horrific reality of World War II and the brave men who fought to free Europe from Nazi occupation. The inscriptions on the monument read "In memory of those who gave their lives in the service of their country," which means "In memory of those who gave their lives in the service of their country". These words still resonate with visitors from all over the world, reflecting on the sacrifices made here.

The monument is a tribute to the freedom made possible by the heroes who rest here. As the sun slowly sets, the monument casts a long shadow over the cemetery, highlighting the power of the memory of their sacrifices. It is an invitation to reflection, gratitude and the ongoing struggle to preserve freedom.
