Poppy Mural

Another Simon White mural as part of the Corryong Mural Art initiative, this one adorns a wall of the Corryong and District Memorial Hall, overlooking the Memorial Gardens.

While it depicts a soldier standing in mourning at a gravesite surrounded by fields of poppies, probably in northern France, it is intended to evoke the idea of remembrance for all service. 

A plaque beside the mural explains the significance of the poppy for remembrance, and quotes the poem 'In Flanders Fields' by John McCrae.
