The Famine Statue in Dublin is located on the east bank of the River Liffey. It records a very difficult and dark history of Ireland. In the great famine that swept Europe more than 100 years ago, Ireland did not avoid it, and a large number of famineers were on the streets. And this main statue is a profound reflection of the situation at that time, and it is lifelike, allowing people to feel the pain of the people at that time today, and let everyone cherish this beautiful and peaceful era.
The Famine Statue is located on the Liffey River in Dublin to commemorate the Great Famine in Ireland in the 1930s. The depiction of the statue is very realistic, and at first glance it feels a strong shock to the soul, and feels sympathy and regret for the people who died in that famine.
This is a group of statues beside the riverfront avenue, depicting the Holocaust in Europe, the despair of the people at that time, as can be seen from their faces and thin figure, very image and shocking.
This group of statues reflects the conditions of the famine, when the peasants were hungry and were fleeing, and the group of statues reflects the harsh living conditions of the time, and can be seen as they pass.
