This year marks the 100th anniversary of the start of
World War I
in 1914. On this year's Armistice Day in London, a massive work of art
dedicated to commonwealth servicemen and women lost a century ago
reached its conclusion. The evolving installation, titled "Blood Swept
Lands and Seas of Red", began back on July 17, with the placing of a
single ceramic poppy in the moat of the Tower of London. In the months
since, another 888,245 poppies were added, each representing a military
fatality from World War I. The poppies were arranged to appear as a
flowing sea of blood pouring from the Tower's "Weeping Window". More
than four million visitors have already viewed the installation, which
will start to come down soon.

grab and lift into the air again.
