Four Canadian soldiers move across the muddy battlefield, their silhouettes mirrored in the rainwater at their feet. A closer look at the water reveals several more reflections that represent their fallen comrades. Engraved in incredible detail, the devastated landscape is a chilling reminder of the harsh realities at Passchendaele, captures the spirit of Canada's participation in the Battle of Passchendaele. Below the picture is the winged figure of “Victory,” with selective gold plating used to recreate the bronze-hued Victory Medal that was awarded to Allied soldiers in 1919.
