Hiroshima Departed
A figure twists in anguish and looks upwards saying “Let this never happen again.” Carved in memory of those who died at Hiroshima, this sculpture warns of the tragedy of nuclear war. Ever year on 6th August, Hiroshima Day, candles are lit around the sculpture.
Purchased from the Ronald Rae Exhibition at Milton Keynes -1995-1999, and gifted to the Temple by art consultant, Edna Read.
