In 2019 Timothy Schmalz, a Canadian sculptor, created a new sculpure on the theme of immigrants and refugees. This artwork, which is dedicated to trafficking victims, was set up in Vatican square. And it is still there.
This week I took a picture of this epic sculpture which shows a crowd of migrants upon a boat headed towards new places, new countries, and sometimes new continents.
Timothy Schmalz's statue will be a permanent fixture in Vatican square.
Have a nice weekend!

To Mica, Olga, Jan & Tanza:
Thank you for the appreciation! ... if you were to go Rome, you'd visit the statue of that Canadian sculptor.
It is really a beautiful statue and monument now.. Happy new week:)
Es una bella estatua y una buena forma de reflexionar, sobre uno de los grandes problemas de nuestro mundo. Te mando un beso.
It certainly is very beautiful, Giorgio.
Have a great week ahead!
