Victory Angel At Waterfront Station
601 W Cordova St, Vancouver, BC V6B 1G1, Canada
About
It is a bronze sculpture of an angel carrying a dead soldier. It commemorates those who lost their lives in World War I. This is one of three identical statues commissioned by the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1921 to honour their workers who answered the call of "king and country" and made the ultimate sacrifice. The others are in Winnipeg and Montreal. The angel originally held a full wreath in her upraised hand. After WW II, the dates of that war were also added to the plaque.
