Re commemoration of WW1 - Interesting Image of Poppies at Plymouth Naval Memorial- Devon, England.
-
The sculpture stemmed from the famous Tower of London poppy display of 2014 where 888,246 poppies were displayed. Wave is one of two sculptures taken from the installation Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red, originally at HM Tower of London in 2014 where hundreds of thousands of poppies were displayed, one for every Allied life lost on the battlefields of the First World War.

PS Plymouth used to be my home town for 35 years. Also bought one of these poppies that were displayed at the Tower of London when they were on sale.
