Sunset
This column is the first of fifteen sculptures by artist cj Fleury located along Preston Street in Little Italy. The series, called "Postcards from the Piazzas", is meant to depict the Italian culture in Canada, from religion to soccer to immigration and many subjects in between. You can read about the artist and the historically relevant pieces here. FYI – in case your not literate in Italian – the poem, written by Elio Coppola and entitled "Sunset", reads:
The sun blushed,
Thinking of the
Ugly things he had
Seen on earth
