Peggy's Cove, Near Halifax, Canada

We did a trip out to Peggy's Cove while visiting Halifax, Nova Scotia.  This sculpture by William Edward deGarthe called “Fisherman’s Monument” was sculpted out of a 100 foot granite face of rock found near his home.  It includes thirty-two fishermen with their wives and children and the figure of Saint Erasmus of Formia, also known as Saint Elmo, the patron saint of sailors.
